By entering into suffering, he says, we find joy. By embracing the downward path of humility, we find glory. And by remaining small, sometimes we grow to great heights.Any leaders who have wondered if God really called them to lead a congregation will resonate with Tacklind's vulnerability in this honest and meditative account. So will readers who have found their own spiritual journey to be winding and halting rather than a constant ascent of growth. Tacklind draws from the natural world--trees, waves, mountains, and canyons--to bring to life the lessons that he has picked up along the way. C. S. Lewis, Henri Nouwen, S ren Kierkegaard and others all serve as guides who light the way on the winding path of following God.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJeff Tacklind is lead pastor of Church by the Sea in Laguna Beach, California, where he lives with his wife and three children.
