I see The Journey serving as a kind of “greenhouse” for spiritual growth, where ideal conditions are provided for growth: supportive community, accountability to Bible reading and reflections, solid curriculum, mentoring, experiential learning, and an exploration of unique design. I have seen people embrace authentic community, find roles in the church and in the marketplace more in line with their God-given design, and respond affirmatively when invited into leadership positions.
