Robert Mulholland Jr. defines spiritual formation as \"the process of being formed in the image of Christ for the sake of others.\" Compact and solid, this definition encompasses the dynamics of a vital Christian life and counters our culture's tendency to make spirituality a trivial matter or reduce it to a private affair between \"me and Jesus.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eInvitation to a Journey\u003c\/em\u003e, Mulholland helps Christians new and old understand that we become like Christ gradually, not instantly. Not every personality is suited to an early morning quiet time, so Mulholland frees different personality types to express their piety differently. He reviews the classical spiritual disciplines and demonstrates the importance of undertaking our spiritual journey with (and for the sake of) others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis road map for spiritual formation is profoundly biblical and down to earth.
