As you journey deeper in the Christian pilgrimage, you come to realize that the Christian life is more than merely replicating particular spiritual disciplines or practices. You begin to understand that at the core of Christian faith is the transformation of your very identity. M. Robert Mulholland Jr. exposes the false selves that you may be tempted to hide behind and helps you to instead discover the true self that comes from being hidden with Christ in God. If the goal of the Christian journey is Christlikeness, then you must reckon with the unhealthy ways that you root your sense of being in things other than God. Along the way, you will discover a growing sense of intimacy and abandonment to God. Not only will you encounter the joy of discovering your own self, you will also find a greater love for others and compassion for the world.
This is a great book. At times it can get a bit repetitious, but over all it is very powerful.

Excellent book! it deals with the Fact of "being to do" instead of "doing to be" in other words the true self is the new man in Christ Jesus . If your identity is not from Jesus Christ thats the False you. Christ is to be formed in you, the false you is trying to work your way to be Christ like but the true self is being Christ like and the life of Christ Jesus flows from who you really are ,a word of God spoken into the earth, a son of God, heir of God and Joint heir with Jesus.

Pause and think

The Deeper Journey may not be a fast read, at least for me it wasn't because I paused to reflect on some pretty significant concepts. The author provides ample support to help you understand that we are to become transparent and vulnerable in our relationships and learn how to trust the genuine article. While the book takes you into deep self reflection on motives and openess, it also is not overwhelming or heavy handed. I think that Dr. Muholland has struck an even tone and will help a person to walk the talk and grow in their personal faith.
