Cultivate an Awareness of the Often-Missed Nuances of the Holy Spirit's Work in Your Life

Do you find yourself longing for a richer, more meaningful spiritual life? Or maybe you're quietly wondering, "Am I even doing this right?" You've heard metaphors like light or dark, feast or famine, close or far, to express connection with God. But what if the Spirit’s work in your life is not just a binary of presence or distance, but a vast landscape of movements, invitations, and transformations?

In The Way of the Spirit, Dr. Jeremy Sims explains how to cultivate attentiveness to the Holy Spirit so you can recognize the subtle, often-overlooked ways God works in your life. Rather than reducing God’s activity to a formula, this book expands your spiritual vocabulary to name the Spirit’s many distinct movements across the seasons of life.

Sims introduces seven Waypoints along the spiritual journey, each offering a glimpse into a season of life through which the Spirit works. As you walk through each Waypoint, you'll be accompanied by a guide—a saint or spiritual figure whose life embodies the work of the Spirit in that season. You will sit with Mary, the Mother of Jesus; the DesertFathers and Mothers; Ignatius of Loyola; Teresa of Avila; John of the Cross; Julian of Norwich; and Brother Lawrence. Through their lives and stories, you will trace the patterns of the Spirit’s work, learn to recognize His presence in your own life,and engage in spiritual practices along the way.

With The Way of the Spirit, you will:

  • Learn how to cultivate attentiveness to the Spirit's work and why it matters.
  • Explore how you perceive the Spirit's work in your life.
  • Broaden your spiritual vocabulary to help recognize and partner with the Spirit's work.
  • Move beyond binaries to learn ways the Spirit moves beyond just the familiar.

 

The Spirit is always present and working in your life, leading you through different seasons in your spiritual journey. Become more attuned to God’s movements, opening the door to the returning, refining, and deepening rhythm of spiritual growth in your daily life. With The Way of the Spirit, begin to navigate your own spiritual journey in a way that feels both ancient and refreshingly new.

Large, Heavy or Oversized Orders

Our standard delivery charges are designed to cover the vast majority of orders. However, occasionally an order may be particularly large, heavy or bulky, meaning that the actual cost of delivery is significantly higher than the standard delivery charge shown at checkout.

This is more likely to apply to larger orders being delivered to Northern Ireland, Europe or destinations outside mainland UK, although it may occasionally apply to other orders.

If your order requires an additional delivery charge, we will contact you before dispatching your order to explain the additional cost and obtain your agreement. We will never take an additional delivery payment without contacting you first.

If you do not wish to pay the additional delivery charge, you will have the option to cancel the affected order for a full refund.

European and Rest of World Deliveries

Please note that we are still shipping to the EU and the rest of the world but due to Brexit there maybe delays and customs charges in the country of your delivery. Unfortunately this is outside of our control.

Checking The Progress Of Your Order

You will be sent an email informing you when your order has been dispatched. In addition to this you can follow the progress of each item you have ordered by checking your account details (login and click on ‘My Account’ on the top right of the screen).
