Soul Shaping: Disciplines That Conform You to the Image of Christ

By Jim L. Wilson

Book Overview

"What would Jesus do?" is a good question, but it is not the right question, at least not by itself. Asking what Jesus would do in a given situation without a fundamental understanding of His lifestyle will not give adequate guidance for daily living or for defining moments. Jesus' lifestyle-His ongoing walk with His Father-shaped His choices. It is impossible to understand some of Jesus' words or choices without considering the way He lived His life and the purpose for which He lived. Spiritual disciplines are small things Christians intentionally do to open themselves to God's work of conforming them to the image of Christ. In Soul Shaping, Jim L. Wilson shows how small acts of devotion, woven into the fabric of everyday life can help Christians live like Jesus lived, and participate in being transformed into Christ's image.. "We all, with unveiled faces, are looking as in a mirror at the glory of the Lord and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory; this is from the Lord who is the Spirit." (2 Corinthians 3:18 HCSB)
