The Upward Spiritual Journey focuses on how God shapes us to become more like Jesus through the practice of the spiritual disciplines of worship, surrender, and repentance. One unique aspect of this book is that it will focus on the spiritual disciplines through the lens of Jesus by looking at the practice of each discipline in his life, teaching, and ministry. We start with Jesus because the goal of practicing the spiritual disciplines is to form Jesus in our lives. What better place to begin than with Jesus? This is the fourth volume of The Way of the Heart of Jesus series. It can be read independently of the other three volumes in the series.
