The Highways to Zion: 6 Ways Connect with God & Fulfill Your Destiny

Three times a year, the ancient Israelites would pack up their families and make the long pilgrimage to Mt. Zion, the temple mount in Jerusalem, - to the dwelling place of God. Depending on where you lived, you'd take a different road. You'd learn it by heart, travel it with your kids, sing songs along the way, and tell the old stories of God's faithfulness. Psalm 84 describes people whose hearts are filled with "the highways to Zion" - people who, no matter where they found themselves in life, knew how to find their way home to God's presence.That's what this book is about.There's only one way to God - Jesus. But there are many different methods of connecting with Him through Jesus. In these pages, you'll learn to walk through six of those highways: Scripture, the Holy Spirit, character formation, community, contemplation, and suffering (The Via Dolorosa). It closes with the most underrated highway of all: the ordinary, unexceptional, everyday stuff of life.This isn't a book of theory. It's a book written by a fellow traveler. If you've felt distant from God and don't know how to close that gap, this book is for you. If you have one or two spiritual habits but feel like you're stuck, this book is for you. If you're just starting out and want a practical, honest guide to building a real relationship with God, this book is definitely for you.The highways are already there. Let's learn to use them
