Exploring The Spiritual Journeys Of Bible Pilgrims In Endless Possibilities Books

By Iva Cannon


There are many role models you could choose to follow. But some of the famous Bible characters offer much value in terms of making life choices and living with the consequences of those decisions. These are interesting people indeed. It is not surprising that author and pastor, the Rev. Dr. Lee Spitzer has looked at their stories and developed inspiring writings to help modern day readers.

Everyone who is spiritually minded has days and seasons when life simply gets confusing. Keeping a clear head about what is truly important can become clouded. These engaging endless possibilities books offer readers help for those times, because it can be difficult when problems arise and there is no clear answer or solution.

The volumes ask questions of the readers. Calls to consider whether or not one is actually growing in faith rather than declining are one tool included. Another question asks whether or not the reader is aware of what paths God has given to him or her.

Dr. Spitzer chooses constructive methods for learning to embrace the spiritual gifts God gives to each person. He is Jewish by birth, but became a Christian when he was a younger man. He and his wife were teenagers when they answered their call from God together. He writes in a manner that provokes thoughtfulness about choosing various life paths. Using scripture references and devotions, he calls his readers to do what he refers to as Exploration Exercises. These are designed to draw the faithful into deeper relationships with God and people.

The Reverend Dr. Spitzer has noted that there are five distinct parts of any faith journey. He believes that each person can learn to identify these and act upon them in a positive way according to the plan God has for them. The first phase is preparation. The second, is discovering that one has been called to faith. The third, discusses the importance of cooperating with God and the people he places nearby. Fourth in order is a consideration of what happens when one reaches the goal of his or her travels. Phase five seeks to introduce the concepts of resurrection and living a new life, in the here and now and also the future. He has created models for these travels of the faithful, and offers guidelines for following them more easily.
