Prayer, simplicity and historic Christian disciplines form the practical framework of Richard J. Foster’s spiritual-formation books. Foster writes Christian spiritual-formation books that introduce historic practices of prayer, simplicity, service and contemplation to modern readers. Celebration of Discipline organises disciplines into inward, outward and corporate practices, covering meditation, fasting, study, confession, worship and guidance. Prayer: Finding the Heart’s True Home surveys different forms of Christian prayer, while Streams of Living Water describes several traditions of Christian spirituality rather than presenting one devotional method as sufficient for everyone. Foster’s prose is calm, practical and ecumenical, drawing on Scripture and older Christian writers as well as contemporary examples. In discovery terms, this places the work across spiritual formation, Christian disciplines, prayer and contemplative spirituality, particularly for readers of Dallas Willard and Henri Nouwen.
