The history of the church is filled with stories of people who began well but didn't finish. They're contrasted with those whose faith not only lasted, but ripened into a rich blend of courage and humility, joy and authenticity, mercy and justice, hope and love. What made the difference? Though there are many factors, one common thread that runs among those whose faith managed to survive was that they'd developed practices and habits which nurtured their lives, enabling Christ to express His life through them in greater and great measure over time. This book takes a look at those habits and practices and explains what they are, why they matter, and how the reader can slowly build some of these practices into their own daily living in the 21st century.
