Walt Shelton
Meaningful Living Through Practice-Oriented Faith
The Practical Application of Faith
How can paying attention to real life experiences, intentionally focusing on the present, learning from our past, developing fresh habits, and listening to different ideas enhance our faith journey and quality of life? Practical, authentic faith means actively loving and pursuing justice daily, resulting in a meaningful life.
The Daily Practice of Life
Having a practice-oriented approach is essential for meaningful living as a Christian or otherwise. Is that realistic?
In The Daily Practice of Life, Walt Shelton, one of the most read faith columnists in Texas, shares a workable perspective. Nicole Villalpando of the Austin American-Statesman says he “brings Christianity…in a way that feels inclusive of people of all faiths, yet he’s very secure in his own religious tradition.”
How can we start each day with a step toward qualitative living? Jesus shows us a routine that anyone can personalize toward reflecting his life-model and teachings.
This book’s fresh combination of real-life events, biblical insights, and nuggets from other traditions will enhance readers’ journeys.
