Following on the Way: The Acts of the Apostles as A Guide to Spiritual Formation

by Karen E. Smith

Overview

Following on the Way explores the Acts of the Apostles as a guide for spiritual formation. While noting some key issues in the interpretation of Acts, Karen E. Smith enters into conversation with Scripture to elicit themes related to spiritual growth and development. In reflecting on Scripture, Smith has drawn from Christian spiritual guides from across the ages to serve as conversation partners in the quest to discover more about being a disciple of Christ. Included at the end of each chapter are questions for personal reflection or group discussion.
