Book Description
Thirty-five years ago, when I was at a low point in my life, the Lord called on me to go deeper in the Faith and to commit myself more fully to Him. My reply? “Yes, Lord! I desire renewal, but I can’t do it alone. I need your help.” That day, I took my first halting steps down the long Road to Spiritual Fitness. Today, with these pages, I’m inviting you to join me on this rewarding path—and, along with the Lord, I’m going to give you the help you need to do so. Much like physical fitness, attaining genuine spiritual fitness requires sustained commitment: you need to be in it for the long haul. I’ve often wanted to turn back, but the Lord assures me that although the path is long and may sometimes be rugged, the effort is well worth it. In these pages, I share key details of my journey down the Road to Spiritual Fitness and provide you with some of the first-class tools that have sustained me along the way (and will sustain you, too). Don’t fear . . . and don’t delay! These tools are for regular guys like you and me, down-to-earth men struggling against the many temptations that face us today. I can assure you that if you follow the steps outlined in these pages, you will, through the power of the Holy Spirit, become spiritually fit to overcome those temptations and face the many other trials of this life. So join me now on the Road to Spiritual Fitness and become the better man God is calling you to be!

Book Description
2017 Catholic Press Association Book Awards, Honorable Mention: Prayer, Books About Prayer What might happen if you gave just ONE PERCENT of your day to God? I don’t have time to pray. I don’t know how to pray. I don’t know what to pray for. Perhaps you identify with one or all of these statements; most people do. But with Gary Jansen’s The 15-Minute Prayer Solution, anyone can learn to turn those “I don’t” statements into “I do” declarations— and be transformed in the process. Drawing on spiritual practices from the Christian tradition throughout the centuries, Jansen offers numerous and wide-ranging prayer exercises that can be completed in less than fifteen minutes. The Jesus Prayer, lectio divina, the Examen, imaginative prayer, and many more ways to joyfully encounter the Living God are explained. Deeply personal stories, thought provoking modern-day parables, and even humorous anecdotes bring spiritual ideas down to earth, revealing the practical side of prayer. And, as Jansen himself discovered, if you’re willing to take just fifteen minutes a day to pray, you may soon find that the entirety of your life has become a prayer, a relentless desire to place God at the center of everything. Now in paperback: Gary Jansen's bestselling Exercising Your Soul retitled, repackaged and revised!

Book Description
Spiritual Fitness Training in Valor is a spiritually bold training guide that answers timeless questions concerning crises. How can I prevail over critical circumstances? What are effective keys to resisting pressure? What can I do to maintain courage and resilience when faced with danger? Persuaded that these solutions are found in God, the author/psychologist offers a spiritual strength-training regimen that includes spiritual weight, resistance, and "cardio-aerobic" exercises. He shows us how to overcome crises by accepting the prevailing power of God and lifting specific "weights of worship." We learn how to resist our spiritual adversary through five pressure-releasing exercises. As we actively pursue the spiritual "cardio/aerobics" of walking boldly for God, we transcend conflicting spiritual messages from the world concerning truth. This unique spiritual fitness program in valor has major applications for spiritual leaders, mental health professionals, and health fitness trainers.
