On the Way is a book of reflections on one man’s journey of faith. Its origins lie in the universal longing of humankind for something beyond ourselves, for something once present that has diminished with the passing of time. This presence now is sensed only fleetingly, yet the longing persists. The title of the book has a double meaning. On the Way refers to the journey of faith, our lifelong pilgrimage from God and to God. But it also points to the one who leads us on this journey, the one who says: “I am the way, and the truth, and the life.” On the Way is a collection of one hundred devotional readings, reminiscent of Spurgeon’s classic Morning and Evening Daily Readings and the Benedictine Lectio Divina. It is intended to stir within the reader some forward movement in their own journey of faith. What people are saying about On the Way: “James J. Rawls draws on wisdom from across the ages. Here he shares his ongoing conversation with these many voices within the framework of a deep personal and practical faith. This book is a great gift and blessing!” —The Rt. Rev. Barry L. Beisner, VII Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Northern California “This is a wonderful book—beautifully written, insightful, and filled with wisdom and warmth.” —Gil Bailie, founder of The Cornerstone Forum and author of God’s Gamble: The Gravitational Power of Crucified Love (2016) “James Rawls has a capacity for clarity of thought and graceful articulation that the reader will find fully present in these meditations. Savor, consume and digest them. Repeat again and again.” —The Rev. L. Ann Hallisey, D.Min., Professional Coach and Organization Consultant, former Dean of Students, Church Divinity School of the Pacific, Berkeley

We're sharing it with you because it might help you on your own journey to God. We only ask that you read this book with an open mind and heart. We suggest you pick one of these spiritual essays. Ponder it, meditate for a while, even read it out loud. Allow yourself to feel the words and the light, which may lead you to discover the better life you truly deserve.

12In Reflections on Life, the author shares a journey, a very personal journey, that includes his struggle with addressing two provocative questions once lifted in prayer by St. Francis of Assisi: "Who are you, oh God, and who am I?" The reader will discover how the author's journey transformed him from a nonpracticing, nominal Christian to a committed follower of Christ whose faith grows stronger with each new day. This book is divided into two sections, each of which provides revealing insights on how the author ultimately found answers to the essential questions posed by St. Francis centuries ago.Section 1 ("Who Am I?") offers a biographical background that focuses on both who and what helped the author deal with life's challenges and influenced him to develop a firmly grounded belief system. This belief system evolved from an "I know all the answers and need no one" perspective to one that acknowledged "I do not have all the answers and am dependent on others to solve life's inevitable problems."Section 2 ("Living a Christian Life is Not Easy: Spiritual Journey") focuses on the author's spiritual journey and how one must learn to give up some of their secular ways. Changing secular ways requires both a willingness to change and hard work. One must learn to forgive oneself and others, stop being judgmental, realize that it is not about them, and put God first in everything and know that God is always with them. This section shares the author's plan and model for success. Our life journeys provide countless challenges and endless opportunities. How we respond to what life brings our way will in large measure determine our ability to be successful in dealing with what we experience. May all who read Reflections on Life find something that supports them with their journey through this life.

In our postmodern, experience-oriented culture, people are longing for greater authenticity, integrity, and depth in their pastors and leaders. Board directors, church members, and staff alike are all eagerly seeking leaders who effectively integrate their spirituality and leadership. Pastors and executives, however, often struggle with knowing how to integrate their spiritual values and practices into their leadership and management roles. Designed for pastors, executives, administrators, managers, coordinators, and all who see themselves as leaders and who want to fulfill their God-given purpose, The Spirit-Led Leader addresses the critical fusion of spiritual life and leadership for those who not only want to see results, but who also desire to care just as deeply about who they are and how they lead as they do about what they produce and accomplish. Geoffrion creates a new vision for spiritual leadership as partly an art, partly a result of careful planning, and always a working of the grace of God
