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.

Dr. Spitzer chooses constructive methods for learning to embrace the spiritual gifts God gives to each person. He is Jewish by birth, but became a Christian when he was a younger man. He and his wife were teenagers when they answered their call from God together. He writes in a manner that provokes thoughtfulness about choosing various life paths. Using scripture references and devotions, he calls his readers to do what he refers to as Exploration Exercises. These are designed to draw the faithful into deeper relationships with God and people.

The plan for the contents includes a distinct model for any journey of faith you might take. Dr. Spitzer teaches his students to identify five phases. The initial one is preparation. After that comes learning why you are called to be a faithful Christian. Third involves gaining cooperation skills with your neighbors and God. Fourth on his list is arriving at your end goal. Fifth discusses resurrection and your new life. He believes that these five are the model to learn from and follow.

There are two volumes included in the program of study. The main volume teaches about goals and identifying the essential nature of what each of our journey means. It also helps to point out what happens when difficult choices lead to bad paths and what can be done to avoid them. Stimulating ways to think about fulfilling what God has chosen for us is a clear focus in these writings.

Second in the set is a course manual which includes questions designed to help develop reflections on the spiritual life. It includes reflections on life as a Christian and how to model living with biblical pilgrims as role models. Scripture readings and devotional materials are included.

If you are seeking a more full way of traveling through life, with more options to stretch your spiritual self, you might consider attending one of the many retreats offered that use this program. You will be offered tools to overcome problems with loneliness, ways to encourage new friendships and many options for thinking about life very thoughtfully. If you truly wish to grow personally within the context of your church membership, these publications will help you to see new ways to create your most insightful life journeys.
