Finding a Spiritual Friend

Friendship is essential, according to Eugene Peterson, for 'developing spiritual depth'. Timothy Jones, formerly associate editor of Christianity Today, has produced a book which is trully a literary Barnabas. This little book will encourage you to see how friends and mentors can make your faith grow. 'True spiritual help is more than a human enterprise. God is the central actor in the partnership' writes Jones. Recall, He was the one that said, 'It is not good that man is alone' and as the writer of proverbs 13:20 counsels, 'Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise'.

The cover here is of the reprint, I have an earlier edition. It is published by Scripture Union, 1998, ISBN 1 85999 3362
