“We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade, the presence of God. The world is crowded with Him. He walks everywhere incognito. And the incognito is not always hard to penetrate. The real labor is to remember, to attend. In fact, to come awake. Still more, to remain awake.” —C.S. Lewis

This little book is about just that – coming awake. It’s a collection of stories and experiences. It’s about family and friends and strangers. It’s about travel and adventure. It’s about books I’ve read and shows I’ve watched. But mostly it’s about how God has taught and shaped me. Following Jesus is a day in and day out experience. Relationship with Him is both incomprehensibly extraordinary and astonishingly ordinary. He’s there through the highs and the lows. He’s also there in the day-to-day. I hope that these stories – and what God has taught me through them –encourage you to pay attention to how God is teaching and shaping you every moment of every day.
