If you are ready to do some serious reading over the Christmas holidays, order a copy of Life in the Spirit: Spiritual Formation in Theological Perspective (IVP Academic). Based on presentations at the 2009 Wheaton Theology Conference, the collection of essays explores the topic of spiritual formation from a biblical and theological perspective, with an emphasis on the notion of sanctification and spiritual maturity within the church. Keynote essays by Gordon Fee and Dallas Willard highlight this meaty volume.
