We are all made with a deep desire to be in God's presence and to become our true selves in light of God's grace. Books from IVP Formatio follow the rich tradition of the church in the journey of spiritual formation. For spiritual directors, retreat leaders, and contemplative Christians alike, IVP Formatio titles facilitate deep and formative spiritual growth through spiritual disciplines and tools like the Enneagram. See all Spiritual Formation Series and Collections.

Read more about Formatio's history and how books can form you spiritually in the article "Spiritual Formation and Books" by senior editor-at-large Cindy Bunch.
