Summary

One searcher's honest and fascinating journey to encounter God, love others, and discover his true self through a year of spiritual practices.

Frustrated and disillusioned with his life as a Christian motivational speaker, Michael Yankoski was determined to stop merely talking about living a life of faith and start experiencing it. The result was a year of focused engagement with spiritual practices - both ancient and modern - that fundamentally reshaped and revived his life.

By contemplating apples for an hour before tasting them (attentiveness), eating on just $2.00 a day (simplicity), or writing letters of thanks (gratitude), Michael discovered a whole new vitality and depth through the intentional life.

Guided by the voice of Father Solomon - a local monk - Yankoski's Sacred Year slowly transforms his life. Both entertaining and profound, his story will resonate with those who wish to deepen their own committed faith as well as those who are searching - perhaps for the first time - for their own authentic encounter with the Divine.

A rather protracted story line.

I mostly appreciated the depth to which the author went to understand the practice if each chapter.
I was pleased that the author himself read the book though at times his broad accent -to me in the UK - made it, not always, but sometimes, difficult to follow.
I read the book because I wanted to learn about the EXAMEN and I certainly did that, so the objective of the author and my objective were achieved.

wonderful book

A beautifully written, thought provoking warm hug of a book. Learning to take joy in the small profound things. Seeing God through the eyes of Marks experience in his sacred year was deeply personal and therefore intimate.
