"Here is a golden book on the Christian life, guaranteed to excite, encourage, and energize plodding pilgrims. Buy it, treasure it, and invest in a stack of copies to give away."
--J.I. Packer
In The Journey, Alister McGrath has created a map for Christians who wish to explore and enrich their spirituality. Using examples from the lives of renowned Christians such as Martin Luther, John Bunyan, Jonathan Edwards, J.I. Packer, C.S. Lewis, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and John Stott, he shows readers how to overcome the obstacles that can block the journey to God--doubt, distraction, temptation, tiredness, emptiness, and low self-esteem.
These preachers, writers, and pastors encouraged their followers to look beyond the transitory concerns of this world, and to focus on God and what He offers to those who prevail on their spiritual journey--advice that continues to have merit today.
The Journey is an essential book for all Christians, whether they are new to the faith or have been traveling on the Christian pathway for years.

From the Back Cover:
"Nothing could be more relevant to the current spiritual search than seeing life as a journey, and McGrath does just that, illustrating it with the wisdom of distinguished Christians who are our companions on the way, and giving us a wonderful insight into his own struggles and joys. A superb book for all who want to go deeper with God."
--Michael Green
"I couldn't put down this humble, moving testimony to God's grace. It excites me because it has the potential to change the prayer patterns of countless Christians in a way that could deepen their encounter with God and make them more effective for the Kingdom."
--Joyce Huggett
"An inspired and creative account of how a brilliant mind is shaped and developed by other brilliant minds of surprisingly different backgrounds."
--R. T. Kendall
"Alister McGrath charts a spiritual journey that engages the heart as well as the mind. Along the way he unearths hidden treasures from classical writers which, with freshly polished biblical images, nourish both the emotions and the intellect. Loving God should involve the whole person--mind, heart, soul, and strength. This book evokes such a holistic response."
