“I started paying closer attention to Christianity in the mid 1970’s. I became a teenager early in that decade, and the faith that others had shared with me became a personal adventure as I grew. I remember way back then seeing the cover of a contemporary translation of the Bible called “The Way”. It was “mod”, trendy, as it attempted to engage a younger generation in God’s Word.

When I read some of the New Testament for myself, I discovered that in the Acts of the Apostles, the first followers of Jesus had called their movement “the Way.” Maybe a holdover from when Jesus told His disciples: “I AM the way and the truth and the life.”

As I have walked this Christian life, I have tried to make the Way of Jesus my way. I have read how Jesus turned to God both day and night for guidance and conversation. I need to do that more often. I have read how Jesus lived His life for others, loving them wholeheartedly. I need to do that more often.

What do you need to do more often to more fully believe and understand that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life?
