Wise Traveller

book-happiness-large As you may have seen from our recent Christmas update we’ve recently been using the Happiness book from the new Wise Traveller series of ‘meditations for life’s journey’. This series of small books are produced by Scripture Union and in their own words, “bring original reflections together with spiritual writings from across history to offer pathways and turning points for those seeking a more authentic way of living.”

The series is written to lead and guide, drawing on a long history of Christian writing and scripture with a modern twist. We’ve found them really helpful and refreshingly creative as a daily reading guide – I would share some quotes with you but the Wise Traveller website that accompanies the series does it better than I could – and also includes full extracts from the books.

In addition to the Happiness book, also currently available are books on, Relationships and Loss – and more are apparently on the way. They’d make a great last minute Christmas present/stocking filler!

As we walk in solitude or in company we discover the power of the journey to prepare us, resource us and change us in ways that enhance our appreciation of the significant ‘arrival’ moments in our lives. Sure, it might be easier to drive straight to the packaged tourist experience, but the journey via the coastal path will have many compensations…

  1. Dear Matt – thanks for your comment. I hope you and Polly are doing well – I’m excited for you and a new baby coming! I think it’s so amazing how my time in Zambia and especially conversations with you 2 set me on this track and really led me to where I am now. It’s crazy – I have a bunch of friends who work at Sojourners, and I’m over there all the time – and I had never heard of them until I met you both in Zambia! Anyhow, thank you for your faithfulness and your encouragement. Blessings to you both!
