So often we too easily settle for someone else's descriptions, the CliffsNotes from another's spiritual journey. We are content to let "God experts" do the heavy lifting and then give us the bottom line. And after enough times through the grapevine, the truth about God deteriorates until crumbs and rumors are all that remain.

But when life derails, when things don't go as we planned, our thin view of God is challenged. In those critical moments, we can choose to walk away from God ... or let our questions lead us home. When you decide to wrestle with God, to engage Him for yourself, you--like Jacob and Job and David--will see rumors die and revelation come alive.

It's time to hear the magnificent divine invitation. It's time to take God up on His offer and embrace the mystery and majesty of knowing Him for yourself.
