The Seeker's Journey (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798235949515)

What if the fire you have spent your life running from is the love that has been searching for you?

Jacob was forty-three years old - a faithful husband, a working father, a believer who had done everything right - and was quietly drowning. The Fortress he had built his life inside promised rest but delivered only the endless weight of a Ledger that never balanced. Then one ordinary evening he found himself somewhere else entirely. A gray city. A book heavy in his hands. A wilderness beyond the walls. A burning mountain on the horizon - and a Voice calling him toward the very fire he had been taught all his life to fear.

Twenty years later, on a porch in the slow heat of late summer, Jacob tells the story for the first time - to his daughter Lily, who long ago stopped believing the version of God she was given. Over three evenings, father and daughter follow the path together: through the Fortress of fearful religion, through the Wilderness of those who have walked away, and toward the Mountain where the fire is not what either of them was told.

The Seeker's Journey is a contemplative allegory in the tradition of Pilgrim's Progress and The Great Divorce - written for the Dones, the Nones, and the Seekers who still feel the old hunger and quietly wonder whether the Gospel might be even better than they were told.

Home is not a place we earn. Home is a Person. And the door is always, always open.
