ENCOUNTER:Â Go From Strength to Strength
What if your spiritual life wasn’t meant to feel rushed, noisy, or disconnected—but instead like a journey… a pilgrimage with God?
ENCOUNTER and its companion Hiking Guide & Journal were created to help you step into a deeper, more intentional walk with Him—one that engages both your inner life and, if you choose, the world around you.
This is more than a Devotional--its an invitation.
Â
Over eight weeks, you’ll be guided on a spiritual journey designed to help you:
- Make space for God in the midst of a full life
- Recognize and respond to His voice
- Experience healing, freedom, and deeper surrender
- Live with renewed clarity, purpose, and intimacy
Each week includes:
- A guiding theme and story
- Daily devotionals (Monday–Friday)
- Reflective journaling prompts
- A contemplative prayer practice
- A declaration to anchor your growth
Whether you’re in a season of transition or simply longing for more of God, this journey will meet you right where you are—and invite you further.

 Companion Hiking Guide And Journal
Â
The ENCOUNTER Hiking Guide & Journal is a companion resource designed for those who want to engage their spiritual journey in a tangible, embodied way.
Inside you’ll find:
- Detailed trail guides from the San Gabriel Mountains. Each hike gets progressively more difficult until you finish by hiking Mt. Baldy–the tallest peak in Los Angeles County.
- Practical hiking information and safety tips.
- Space to journal, reflect, and document your journey.
- Guided spiritual direction exercises for each hike that tie into the ENCOUNTER devotional.
Each trail is an opportunity to step away from the noise, slow your pace, and meet with God in creation.
Not a hiker? No problem.
This guide simply offers an additional experience—an invitation, not a requirement.
