Stepping-Stones: Drawing Close to God Through Life's Circumstances

Prayer is a central tenet in Stepping-Stones. Marcia reveals how prayer is the fuel for her journey. She challenges her readers to examine their own prayer lives and their beliefs about prayer. She challenges readers to do some excavation in their own souls so they can learn to listen to God's voice.As you embark on the journey through Stepping-Stones you are faced with the realities of life's imperfections. However, the journey through this book underscores freedom from the need to do it all right, to always be right, and to have everything go right. As Marcia charts her own journey, it is clear that life's imperfections are guaranteed-and in this book imperfection is skillfully navigated through prayer, humility, introspection and through community. You will also be reminded that you do not walk alone.As you focus on God through this book, that is also truly a devotional, you are reminded that He walks with us through all of life's journey.At age 20, Marcia gave her heart to Jesus and began a relentless pursuit of a deeper, more intimate relationship with Him. To say that her faith has been challenged would be an understatement. She has withstood dealing with the loss of her mother; the murder of her nephew; divorce-and then the untimely death of her ex-husband; single parenthood; and the discouragement of broken promises made by those who professed unwavering support!For many that might have been enough to walk away from God. Marcia has developed an unwavering determination to anchor her faith in The Eternal Rock.
