Summary: ' "Spirituality" may be possible for a single, old, financially stable contemplative who has nothing to do but pray,' says Michael Yaconelli, 'But for people like you and me, with kids and mortgages and jobs and car payments, probably not.' There are many obstacles to the kind of spirituality we feel we ought to have: not enough time, feelings of inadequacy, lethargy, over-expectation, fear ... But we will be surprised to discover that spirituality - true, Godly spirituality - is not quite as inaccessible as we once thought. Michael Yaconelli writes from the heart, with humour and humanity, and bears favourable comparison with Philip Yancey and Richard Foster.
