Do you ever feel like something is missing? You know something is off, but you can''t quite figure out what it is. After years in full-time ministry, James A. Hamilton became disillusioned as he recognized that there was something missing in the lives of many who had professed faith in Jesus Christ, including his own.
A thirty-minute meeting in a jail cell with a convicted murderer changed everything. During that meeting, the author got a glimpse of what was missing: a transformed life that transforms lives. Though observation of American Christian culture might tempt us to believe otherwise, the Christian life is not about personal morality and following the rules; it is about being transformed into the nature and character of Jesus Christ. This transformation brings transformation to those around us, to our communities, and, ultimately, to our culture.
In The Journey of How, Hamilton invites us into a conversation about our transformation into the nature and character of Jesus ChristaEUR"what it entails and why it''s vital to fulfilling our identity, mission, and purpose in this life, and in eternity. He also uncovers the beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors that can get in the way. Finally, he offers daily practices that help cultivate our transformation so we will more consistently and automatically express the nature of character of Jesus Christ right here, right nowaEUR"and make a lasting impact on the world.
