"The Practice of Remembering does something no other book I have seen dares to do. It explores the importance of memory in our spiritual formation. Our experiences, memories, and stories form a script that influences our lives in deep ways. This beautifully written, honest book is full of much-needed wisdom. Prepare to be changed." - James Bryan Smith, author of The Good and Beautiful God

Your Memories Are More Important Than You Think

You carry whispers deep within you-experiences, events, messages you heard throughout your childhood, the designs and desires of your life, and the highs and lows of your relationships and inner world. You hold memories of being loved or ignored, encouraged or discouraged. These memories journey with you. They're your companions, your constant friends. This is the fabric of your everyday life.

These memories shape every decision you make, every action you take. But have you ever stopped to ask yourself-why do you do what you do, in the way that you do it? Why not choose differently?

In The Practice of Remembering, Casey Tygrett shows us that how we hold and carry our memories-both good and bad-is a part of what forms us spiritually. Previously titled As I Recall, this book explores the power of memory and offers biblical texts and practices to guide us in bringing our memories to God for spiritual transformation.

The Practice of Remembering includes spiritual practices like

narrating a memory, writing a spiritual autobiography, the examen for memories, writing your own Psalm, and more.

When it comes to our engagement with God and our formation around the life and teachings of Jesus, our memories come with us; they help make us. Without memory, there is no formation, whether those memories are joyful and treasured, ambiguous and circumstantial, or traumatic. We are God's memory-made beings. Discover how your memories have formed you with The Practice of Remembering.
