Spiritual Journey introduces the concept of spiritual formation and how to get started on the adventure of drawing near to God. Each chapter includes four parts: a subject, an obstacle, a spiritual discipline, and a practice, to help the reader understand different parts of the spiritual journey, identify roadblocks, and learn how to navigate through to the other side.

Covered themes include desperation for God, brokenness, God's desire for us, what a spiritual journey is, identity, hearing God, and developing character. Identified obstacles such as lies, fear, anger, shame, refusal of love, and disobedience reveal barriers to growth.

"Mirror moments" are provided within each chapter to give the reader the opportunity to immediately reflect and sort through thoughts and feelings that accompany the obstacles. Spiritual disciplines such as saying yes to God, community, meditation, journaling, listening prayer, and submission are introduced for the reader to practice simple activities that bring transformation from the inside out.

Dr. Wanda Walborn challenges readers to enter into the adventure of the spiritual journey, process through painful places, remove obstacles, and step into the freedom and fullness provided through the presence and power of Christ.
