In one book of a two book series, author Gregg Farah presents an easy-to-read outline of steps to take to increase our faith in God. Farah has a wonderful writing style. His book is full of useful information. He takes passages that we have glanced over for years and brings out their relevance for our walk of faith. I highly recommend this book for all Christians and non-Christians alike.

The book is just what the description says it is--quick and easy ways to grow your faith, especially for people who don't have much time for reading and praying. Or especially for people who may not like to read and/or aren't comfortable with spending a lot of time praying. Those traditional ways just don't work for everyone.

Fortunately, there are other ways. Some of the more obvious ones include appreciating the beauty of this world, sharing your testimony with a friend (or a stranger) and listening to their story. He encourages serious involvement in small groups.

There are also more methodical ways to grow, such as setting a time (and an alarm) to sit and just be with God, if for only five minutes.

Mr. Farah also suggests ways to grow through the arts, such as listening to contemporary worship music, attending Christian concerts, and reading through an old church hymnal.

(So many of the old hymns were deeply meaningful! But many of the new ones are, too.)

All in all, this book was breezy, light reading--maybe written for people who don't like to read (or don't have much time to). The suggestions are probably best for new Christians, youthful Christians, and too-busy Christians who need their faith rekindled. The right reader might love this book.

But if you seriously want to grow your faith, deep calling to deep, you need to get serious about the spiritual disciplines. I suggest you try any or all of the following books:
Renovation of the Heart and its companion volume: Renovation of the Heart in Daily Practice
A Year with God: Living out the Spiritual Disciplines
Spiritual Disciplines Handbook: Practices that Transform Us
Soul Feast: An Invitation to the Christian Spiritual Life
Building Y0ur Spiritual Core: 101 Creative Ways to Connect with God
Celebration of Discipline: The Path to Spiritual Growth
Recapturing the Wonder by Mike Cosper
