Nathan Foster was only a child when his father's typical Special event of Self-control brought the religious disciplines into the popular evangelical consciousness. A lot more than thirty years later, Nathan made his own voyage into the religious disciplines. As he looked for daily to develop practices that would allow him to live on more like Jesus, he encountered problems both universal and unique. In such a participating narrative, he pulls insights from saints of old to discover fresh ways of living for the modern-day, postmodern Christian. Through his successes, struggles, and failures, Foster invites listeners on a journey of liberty, pain, aggravation, and ultimately enjoyment as he discovers to go up above selfish wants, giggle at his own failures, and show up deeply in love with God. Those people who have read Special event of Self-control will see in Nathan's e book creative new ways to practice the disciplines that have been so formative in their lives. Those who are new to the religious disciplines will see that creating a essential, interactive, conversational romance with God is within their grasp. As a result, the holy practices of love, enjoyment, peace, fortitude, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control are truly possible for all.
