STEUBENVILLE, Ohio, Feb. 21, 2013 /Christian Newswire/ -- Emmaus Road Publishing announced today that its publication of Dan Burke's "Navigating the Interior Life: Spiritual Direction and the Journey to God" has been selected as one of the five finalists for Best Catholic Book of 2012 in the 2013 About.com Catholicism Readers' Choice Awards.

About.com Catholicism's 75 million monthly unique visitors worldwide will have an opportunity to cast their final votes until March 19, 2013. Winners will be announced on March 27, 2013.

Publisher Mike Sullivan said: "Emmaus Road has always published authentically Catholic books that are constructive to spiritual growth, because our Lord and His Church expect nothing less. It is an honor to know that our diligent work is not only recognized, but that Dan Burke's book has been given a place of honor next to the best of the best, most remarkably including Pope Benedict's 'Jesus of Nazareth: The Infancy Narratives.' That's pretty good company!"

"Navigating the Interior Life" turns over every stone, showing how spiritual direction is among the most powerful tools to build spiritual health -- the most effective process to grow in holiness and deepen our relationship with God.

"Navigating the Interior Life: Spiritual Direction and the Journey to God" is available online at emmausroad.org, Amazon, or your local Catholic bookstores.
