GoodBookStall Review:
Larry Warner is a seminary professor and spiritual director, and this book is the result of his experience in leading people through a contemporary form of the exercises of Saint Ignatius. This is a gentle, accessible, guilt-free book which takes you on a daily meander through the rich pastures of God’s grace. Larry warns that you have to take it seriously – but also that perfectionism is not called for. If you want to get closer to Jesus, to deepen your relationship with God, this is a beautiful way to do it. It takes an hour a day to do the exercises – but somehow it comes as easily as breathing. The book includes practical excercises, and it has the great merit of moving slowly, eddying round you like a gentle stream of life-giving water throughout the day. I thoroughly recommend it.
