More on the theme . . . Faith is a verb, Christian life is a journey.  Although there is no map quest that leads directly from one point to the next as we follow God, there do seem to be common threads and stages that we go through as well as markers along the way to help us know we are on the right track.  As we explore the terrain of our lives from a faith perspective, we begin to understand what our next step in faith might be in responsiveness to God. 

Imagine what it would be like to experience God in every moment of your day.  In every circumstance.  In every relationship.  What if you discovered that your life isn’t so ordinary after all?  That there is Someone wildly in love with you who is inviting you on a great adventure. 

Faith is a journey.  However, our destination is not so much a place as it is a person.  Our journey ultimately is an invitation to come close to that person, through knowing and experiencing a God who wants to be known and experienced.  It is possible to engage in a way of life where we learn to hear God and respond to God's movements in our lives.
