The Adventure: Putting Energy into Your Walk with God

by Jerry Sittser

"An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered." --G.K. Chesterton

As even a brief exposure to the New Testament will show, the Christian life is a life of adventure. Every aspect is full of energy and light. Yet too often we stop at one point of interest--evangelism, spiritual disciplines, social justice--and go no further. Interweaving stories from a summer vacation, Jerry Sittser shows how our lives can include all God has in mind for us. In a book that is fun and challenging, Sittser restores wholeness to the adventure of Christian living.

I have re-read this book every year since 1994. Each year the color of the ink of my pen and highlighters differs just as the lessons learned. Each time a new light of God shines w/in my soul. Just love this book.
