An interview with Lynne on her new book, "Joy Together"



Joy Together: Spiritual Practices for Your Congregation

Cover of 'Joy Together"Lynne covers six spiritual practices that congregations and small groups can engage in together:

  • thankfulness
  • fasting
  • contemplative prayer
  • lectio divina
  • hospitality
  • Sabbath keeping

Marva Dawn says...
"Baab exuberantly, and realistically
, displays the way spiritual practices can strengthen groups or whole congregations of Christians. Her illustrations are convincing; her experiences, vast and confirming; her explanations, constructive. I heartily urge every Christian to read this book, significant as it is, because we who respond to the Trinity with practices need to learn to live more as a community!" Marva Dawn, Theologian, author of Keeping the Sabbath Wholly and Unfettered Hope
