A Theology of Journey: Introduction

The Theology of Journey

The Theology of Journey

During my doctoral work, Len Sweet said on several occasions that there needs to be an expounding on the Theology of Journey. Alan Jamieson, a New Zealand pastor, has authored two books on the topic. One is Chrysalis: The Hidden Transformation in the Journey of Faith (Faith in an Emerging Culture) and the second is Journeying in Faith.

I have begun reading Deuteronomy as part of my daily worship and I was jolted by the journey of Israel from Mt. Sinai to the Promised Land. It is as much a description of the theology of journey as anything we have in Scripture. It is the story of new God-followers on journey with God all the way into the promise land. It is the story of God developing the faith of a nation. I think it is a great place to begin to examine how God leads us into a transformational journey.

Come along with me, will you?
