In a society always seeking the new and novel, Christians can become more grounded and mature through a retrieval of our common tradition. Alex Sosler sets forth the "transcendentals" of truth, goodness, and beauty—along with community—to help listeners follow the way of Jesus. Weaving together church history, theology, and devotional practice, Sosler offers a holistic introduction to spiritual formation, encompassing biblical truth, the pursuit of the good life, the contemplation of God, and communal belonging.

Author A. J. Sherrill still remembers the moment when his life was forever changed by a word he didn't even understand at the time: Enneagram.

But in this book, Sherrill goes deeper, exploring with Christians how the Enneagram can be a pathway to profound spiritual transformation.

Transformed by the Spirit is a culmination of seven and a half years of formal study in Spiritual Formation & Theology between my undergraduate and graduate work at Multnomah University and Seminary School. The main issue that Transformed by the Spirit addresses is the need for us, as Christians, to develop our relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, through the various spiritual disciplines and through the power of the Holy Spirit.

A generation of young Christians are weary of the political legacy they've inherited and are hungry for a better approach. They're tired of seeing their faith tied to political battles they didn't start, and they're frustrated with leaders they thought they could trust. Kaitlyn Schiess grew up in this landscape and understands it from the inside. In The Liturgy of Politics, Schiess shows that the church's politics are shaped by its habits and practices, even when it's unaware of them.

We know that everything in our life is forming us, whether we realize it or not. And because of that we wanted to have conversations with students here at our school to learn more about how all of us can become more intentional about the things that are forming us. We hope that these conversations allow us to be more aware of how the culture is forming us, talk about how to leave the "patterns of this world" like Paul talks about in Romans 12, all so that we can better become people who are formed by the gospel as we live for Jesus and His Kingdom.

First Formation is spiritual exercise for rank and file believers looking to get up and pray. Listen to hear the good news through grunts and with grunts, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, as one Church forever and ever. Fall In!
