Publisher's Description

Have you ever wondered, "Is this all there is to life and ministry with the Lord?" "Why am I so tired all the time?" "How can I grow in my intimacy with God in practical ways?" "Am I so busy doing that I have forgotten how to be with God?" 

As ministry workers, we too often face these questions because we too often expect a thriving personal relationship with God to be an outcome of our ministry. Journey With Me illustrates that ministry is the result of the overflow of our relationship with God, rather than vice versa. Exploring over fifteen ancient spiritual graces—such as Lectio Divina, rule of life, silence and solitude, and prayer of Examen—Herbert F. Lamp, Jr. invites us to prioritize soul care, rather than treating ministry as a replacement for intimacy. In the process of knowing and being known, God fills us up with his love, joy, peace, and wisdom. Only then can we minister to others, balancing a heart for God with hands for service.  

After almost four decades of missionary service, Lamp has experienced the joys and potential pitfalls of serving Christ cross-culturally. Sharing his experiences and offering practical, time-tested methods to grow spiritually, Lamp invites you to journey with Our Father intimately as you cross your cultural, linguistic, ethnic, and geographic borders, serving him wholeheartedly and passionately.

Editorial Reviews

"Journey With Me is a must read for anyone ministering as a cross-cultural servant. The ancient pathways of spiritual formation are essential for lasting growth in our faith journey."  - Perry Bradford, executive director, Barnabas Internationa

"We see ministry workers who are tired, overly active, and not living a balanced life. Each chapter invites the reader to reflect and consider aspects such as silence, communal discernment, and submission." - Nydia R. Garcia-Schmidt, area director, North and South America, Wycliffe Global Alliance 

"With real life stories, biblically grounded theology, and attention to the needs of global servants, the ancient pathways of spiritual formation come alive in the practicality and the effective nurture of the soul."- Stephen A. Macchia, DMin, founder and president, Leadership Transformations 

"Those of us who have served the Lord cross-culturally have at one time or another stood at a spiritual crossroad in our missionary career. Journey With Me is a must read for anyone ministering as a global servant. The ancient pathways of spiritual formation are essential for lasting growth in our faith journey. If you desire to recapture the radiant power of ancient pathways for spiritual formation, accept Herb Lamp’s personal invitation to Journey With Me. It will be a delight to your soul!" - Perry Bradford executive director, Barnabas International 

"Herb Lamp’s Journey With Me overviews the basic spiritual disciplines and concepts that are crucial for healthy ministry in challenging cross-cultural environments. Each chapter builds on the previous and ignites hope that we can thrive and flourish when we are connected and centered in Jesus. Herb does not proscribe more work and activities that we should be doing. But rather he presents the historical pathways of spiritual formation as opportunities for greater vitality and connectedness to the Source of Life. I wish this resource were available thirty years ago when I embarked in cross-cultural ministry. It is an essential read for all global workers endeavoring to advance the gospel in difficult places."- John Dallmann CEO/president, Engineering International Ministries Global 

  

"This book is one that member care professionals, life coaches, and overseas workers must have in their life care toolbox. I have seen the joyful fruit of Herb Lamp’s work with missionaries over the years and know that these are words of truth. The ancient pathway is still the one true way that leads to a life overflowing with the fullness and health of Christ."- Bill Dunham director of Marketplace Ministries, Christian and Missionary Alliance
