Perfect for you if...

You're a Christian struggling to reconcile your faith with conversations about race and social justice, and you're tired of surface-level spiritual advice.
You feel the gap between believing in Jesus and actually being changed by him, and you want a practical framework for deeper formation.
You're drawn to authors like John Mark Comer who integrate emotional health, contemplation, and social responsibility into faith.

Maybe not for you if...

You're looking for a light devotional or quick spiritual pick-me-up rather than a challenging, introspective read.
You want Christianity without wrestling with harder questions about racial justice, sexuality, and systemic change.
You prefer doctrine-heavy theology over the personal soul work and emotional honesty this book demands.

About this book

Rich Villodas, a New York pastor, presents five key values for spiritual formation in Christian life. He argues that many believers practice Christianity without experiencing deep transformation by Christ, hindered by busy lifestyles that prevent union with God and emotional health. Villodas outlines five values to restore spiritual balance and meaning: Contemplative Rhythms Value (slowing down to be with God), Racial Justice Value (pursuing racial justice and reconciliation), Interior Examination Value (examining one's inner life to live freely and love well), Sexual Wholeness Value (connecting sexuality with spirituality), and Missional Presence Value (living as Christ's presence in a broken world). The book serves as a roadmap toward spiritual rootedness—a place of communion with God where believers discover their purpose and learn to live differently from the world. It addresses how Christian faith intersects with the complexities of race, sexuality, and social justice. Winner of the Christianity Today Book Award.
