Explore The Spiritual Journeys Of Bible Pilgrims Endless Possibilities Books

By Iva Cannon


With many people moving through life on paths designed to improve their personal faith, a series of books designed to help them can be very welcomed. For those who are Christian, the life affirming stories of famous men and women in the Bible hold particular interest. For this reason, author Lee B. Spitzen has created stimulating reading for those looking for inspiration and guidance.

Because there are many times when the spiritual walk becomes a confusing journey, help with keeping focus is desired. The course of endless possibilities books was written to help readers find more clear pathways for their own particular movements through life. Acknowledging that lack of clarity is a universal problem for many religious pilgrims, these writings serve to provide a clearer outline.

These volumes pose several questions to interested readers. Are you growing or declining in your faithfulness to God? Do you know what journeys are yours, given by God? These are just two of the many that require thinking about how you intend to live your life path.

Embracing gifts of spirituality are another important part of the writings Spitzen has put together. Though he is of Jewish birth, he converted to Christianity as a teenager. His writings are thought provoking in nature, and ask questions as a methodology for teaching and learning in a very organized way. Essentially workbooks in nature, there are exercises planned for in depth consideration of scripture passages. These are called Exploration Exercises.

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.

The program has two main volumes. The first identifies what a spiritual journey truly is, teaches goals that one might use to focus on better life pathways, gives solutions for what to do when the paths are poorly judged and filled with problems and seeks to stimulate new thinking about what choices might be better for fulfilling positive goals.

The second volume in the program is course book filled with numerous opportunities for journal writing, note taking, and truly questioning what Christianity requires of its followers and provides for them throughout life. This contains reflections on the spiritual self using scripture passages for devotional purposes.

To complete and fulfill readers, there are spiritual retreats offered that use these books and methods as training and resources. Participants are offered tools for dealing with current topics such as loneliness, making friends, creating faithful companions, and ways to engage in thoughtful living. Personal growth within the church is a thread that runs throughout these highly insightful publications.
