This booklet is very helpful for ones first contact with the Celebration of Discipline book itself. This book requires 15 pages of reading a week to go along with the 15 pages out of Celebration of Discipline. This is good for group leaders or heavy-duty spiritual growth fans. The exercises makes the collective material a real spiritual work out.
I've used this study addition to help lead discussion in my book club. He writes tough questions that demand some thought and soul-searching. The study guide is also short and reads easily, which allows the discussion leader to prepare even with limited prep time. I recommend it for both personal and group use.
This guide is perfect to get you motivated to work these Disciplines. It is a great companion to the Celebration of Discipline book. It allows you to be an individual while growing with others.
I purchased the book and the study guide to do a group study of the book.Most of the study questions are more like quiz questions that check to make sure you actually read the book. The questions don't even try to lead into deeper discussion.I used the study guide to write my own questions. It helped a little bit in that regard, and the only other help it was, is that it has key Bible verses that relate to the chapter (most of the time).
Accomplished all I hoped it would. Stimulated deeper thought on book and excellent resource of books written on each topic to explore other thoughts on each topic In the book. Glad I purchased this study guide- I have never thought study guides were of much value. I feel this is an exception. Resources alone worth the cost.
An excellent companion to Foster's classic Celebration of Discipline. This is not a stand alone book, however. It must really be used in conjunction with the main book. It features many excellent scripture references, reflection question, suggested activities and a wonderful bibliography for further reading in each discipline. As a bible study teacher this is an invaluable addition to your teaching collection.
I obtain this ebook to help me with my reading in Celebration of Discipline. This study guide is also great if you want to do a group study on a weekly basis. Celebration of Discipline is a good book, but requires deep commitment and study. Recommend it to anyone that is seriously thinking of making a deeper commit and relationship with the Lord.
I am just beginning a comprehensive study into spiritual disciplines and the writings of both Foster and Dallas Willard (who just died this week, May 2013) are critical pieces to start with. For anyone who is interested in deepening his spiritual life, Foster will give you much to chew on. Readers will appreciate fresh insights into the more obvious inward disciplines of meditation, prayer, fasting and study, but the Foster's discussion of the less obvious disciplines of simplicity, solitude and submission will shake you into the realization of just how formidable it is to live in our prevailing cultural climate and mores.
