By Way of Grace

During this exciting time of spiritual renewal, people from every denomination and creed are asking the same question: how do we move beyond merely believing in Christ to becoming new people in Christ? How do we grow through faithfulness into holiness? By Way of Grace is a contemporary account of the traditional Christian journey toward transformation. Each chapter is devoted to one of the great virtues: prudence, temperance, justice, fortitude, humility, faith, hope, and love. Each also focuses on the life and work of a major contemplative saint: Basil of Caesarea, Gregory the Great, Bernard of Clairvaux, Thomas Aquinas, Teresa of Avila, Francis de Sales, Thérèse of Lisieux, and Edith Stein. And each is connected by an ongoing narrative thread, author Paula Huston’s personal encounter with a rich, full, and fascinating Christianity nearly forgotten in modern times. Written in the spirit of her award-winning The Holy Way: Practices for a Simple Life, By Way of Grace is meant for everyone who longs for a “life hidden in Christ” that might also become a source of hope and a blessing to others.
