“Deep Rooted in Christ” is the devotional book written by Korean pastor Joshua Choonmin Kang, pastor of the Oriental Mission Church in Los Angeles. I first heard of this book about a year ago when Richard Foster spoke of it at a Renovare event. At that time it was available only in Korean but now, an English translation is available through IVP. The book is divided into sections and comprises 52 readings, suitable for weekly reading. Foster raved about this book when he spoke of it so I’m anxious to read it for myself.
Calvin Miller is also back with a book surveying the Celts with “The Path of Celtic Prayer”. Miller’s research into Celtic spirituality is distilled into six disciplines designed to deepen our prayer life. Knowing Miller, this will not be a book for the shallow “sugar coated” spiritual life. It will be challenging, deep, and instructive. I’ve loved his other works and am sure this one will satisfy also.
It looks like the spring months will be good ones for reading!
