Overview

Spiritual nourishment for the day-to-day journey. The Christian life is a journey filled with mountaintops and valleys. As the Christian experiences the ups and downs of this walk, a common prayer is ‘Lord, give me strength.’ Joseph Stowell, President of The Moody Bible Institute, presents this enriching devotional overflowing with spiritual challenges, thought-provoking questions, and keen biblical insights. Through six devotionals each week, and a Psalm for the seventh day, the reader’s faith will be nourished and his spirit refreshed. As a gentle guide, Dr. Stowell spurs readers on to consistently turn to the Word of God for sustenance on this lifelong pilgrimage.

From the Back Cover

For all of us, life is a journey . . .

And God has provided all of the help we need on our pilgrimage. Stowell’s compelling, passionate daily devotional will help you access God’s Word—His totally reliable source for guidance, comfort, confidence, encouragement, and strength in an often dark and treacherous world. Once a week, a Psalm is given for you to meditate upon and to find comfort and truth. The entire book of Proverbs is also included, providing 31 chapters of advice for wise living.  

Praise for Strength for the Journey

I treasure Joe Stowell’s spiritual insight and ability to inspire a renewed sense of love for God on the part of believers everywhere.  He is gifted with an unusual ability to speak to our current day culture and shine the light of God’s Word on that culture in an illuminating and refreshing way.  He is a true friend who has gained strength for the journey through an intimate walk with our Savior.
-Franklin Graham, CEO, The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association & Chairman and President, Samaritan’s Purse

To keep your heart beating in rhythm with the Savior’s . . . to cup your ear and hear Him say, “This is the way; walk in it” . . . to know that you’re wedged in the middle of His will!  This is the goal of the seeking Christian and, in these troubled days, Joe Stowell’s book, Strength for the Journey, is the Christian’s guide to a deeper, more intimate walk with Christ.
-Joni Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends

In rare moments of our lives we are called to accomplish something for the Lord in which all of what we are comes together in the work.  Strength for the Journey is such a work for Joe Stowell.  As a consummate pastor, he counsels and encourages.  As a superb Bible teacher, he thoughtfully opens the Word.  As a fellow pilgrim, he comes alongside us and helps us find the strength for one more day’s journey.
