Publisher's Description
▼▲"In The Narrow Path, Rich unpacks what living our best life truly looks like. This book is a much-needed heart checkup for every Jesus follower."Christine Caine, founder of A21 and Propel Women
We live in a culture that wants it all. More is seen as betterwhether its more money, social media fame, choices, or power. For those chasing this way of life, "narrow" seems negative. Who wants to narrow their options . . . or be seen as narrow-minded?
Which is why the most well-known talk in the history of the worldthe Sermon on the Mountis also the most paradoxical one. In it, Jesus holds up the narrow path as the most spacious . . . and the broader path as the more confining one.
Rich Villodas, bestselling author of The Deeply Formed Life, explores what todays broad and narrow paths look like so you can discern which one youre on. The answer may surprise youand will help you pursue the way of Jesus more deeply when it comes to loving God and others, prayer, sexual desire, conflict, money, anxiety, and more.
The Narrow Path reintroduces the counterintuitive wonder of Jesuss timeless wisdom for this age, one fraught with anxiety, depression, polarizing politics, and online vitriol. The path of Jesus is most certainly narrow, but it is the only one filled with the ever-expanding life of God . . . and it is available now for all who want it!

"Brilliant and beautiful, concise and clear, The Narrow Path helps us remember again the words of our Lord that lead us to the liberating reality of a world in which less is more, in which the hard work of obedience leads to durable joy, and in which the love of Jesus is to be discovered and dwelt in while we travel this road together as a body of fellow pilgrims."Curt Thompson, MD, psychiatrist and author of The Deepest Place and The Soul of Shame
