At the heart of each of us lies a soul longing to be right with God and to be reconciled with others. Beyond our drive for success is a deeper yearning to find our purpose and live meaningful lives. Yet, life can be messy and overwhelming. Disappointments and hurt accumulate, making it difficult to embrace the truth of Scripture and apply faith to our struggles. We often conceal our pain and lock away our wounds-lost dreams, unmet expectations, and betrayals. This unresolved pain hinders our ability to lead thriving lives, as outward success means little without inner peace. In our darkest moments, well-meaning words like "hope," "trust," and "pray" can feel empty. We struggle to know how to maintain relationships when trust has been broken or how to hope when hope seems lost. Described as "the how of faith in the now of life," The Way of Becoming offers an illuminated path for every hurting soul. It assures us that no matter how deep our pain, how weak our frame, or how significant our battles are, Jesus walks alongside us, offering healing, strength, and renewed hope. Presented in a story-based narrative and infused with Scripture, The Way of Becoming explores twelve faith practices to foster a deeper relationship with God, recognize His presence in our lives, and experience inner healing. With its collection of inspiring, true stories and vivid illustrations from around the globe - from Africa to China, India to Russia, Israel to Egypt - readers will embark on their own transformational journeys of healing and learn how to rise out of their stuck places and enter more abundant spaces. While no two stories are alike, The Way of Becoming's twelve faith tools provide a "roadmap" of soul care for everyone that, when applied, will lead to greater intimacy with God and personal wholeness. As Scripture beckons us to "consider the ancient paths" (Jeremiah 6:16), this book presents these twelve ancient practices of the Christian faith in modern language with practical applications. This book will enrich and guide you in applying each practice to your trying circumstances, your soul's condition, and the complexities of your relationships. Whether you read this alone or go through it with a friend, or in a study group, every active participant in this faith exploration will encounter the Spirit's movements in their life, taking them from wondering to discovering, needing to receiving, hoping to believing, and on to greater flourishing. Ultimately, The Way of Becoming serves as a "Rosetta Stone" for the soul, revealing the Lord's empowering presence in every story-even yours.
