Spiritual Pathways

Discover how you best connect with God by discovering your Spiritual Pathway.

God has designed us uniquely and we will never fully experience true intimacy with Him until we understand how we best connect with Him. Understanding this allows us to walk daily in His presence and appreciate those around us who are wired up differently.

Confessions of a Pastor- Craig Groeschel

Confessions of a Pastor: Adventures in Dropping the Pose and Getting Real with God – I would sum up this book as a must read for everyone who wants to live a victorious Christian life and a mandatory manual for those considering ministry as a full time vocation.

I found Pastor Craig’s book refreshingly honest because it brings to light the things that keep most leaders in the dark. Jesus said that if you want freedom and life you must bring that which is in the dark into the light. Pastor Craig encourages us to walk this journey with him. It is a journey of an open, honest and transparent life.

Pastor Craig has boldly gone, (like Captain Kirk on the USS Enterprise!) where no man has wanted to go before.

Self disclosure, and publicly! It is risky leadership…but essential if followers are to be free to at least have a go at walking the Christian Life.

For me it is a must read on every level.

Then it is a must do and apply!

If all Christ Followers read it…we might collectively and individually stand out as different from the crowd- the world.

I want to thank Pastor Craig for his willingness to be vulnerable- it gives me courage to do the same for those God places around me.
