In it we attempt to re-envision, to see anew, the patterns of power, confidence, and loss that shape maturity. This effort is guided by two ideas or, better, images that have long been central in Christian spirituality: \u003cb\u003evocation and \u003cb\u003evirtue\u003c\/b\u003e. Our goal is to befriend these images, to rescue them from narrow interpretations that have weakened each, to recover their power to illumine our adult journey with God. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eSeasons of Strength\u003c\/i\u003e is a probing, thoughtful, and inspiring exploration of what it means to become an adult Christian.
