His ten counsels:
- Do no define spiritual formation in terms of various practices
- Do not focus on curriculum-based solutions
- Do not aim at outward action
- DO root spiritual formation in the Great Commission
- DO think internationally
- DO think in terms of the Church universal
- DO give sustained attention to a balanced vision
- DO draw wisdom and insight from the Great Tradition
- DO take the long view
- DO develop the highest possible Christology.
