As believers around the world pray for renewal and revival in our conflicted times, they often neglect a key ingredient: pursuing God's presence. The problem, says pastor and theologian Roger Helland, is that we were never taught, in a balanced and biblical way, how to seek, experience, and host God's kavod—his radiant glory, his manifest presence. Offering grounded and practical teaching, balanced with Scripture and Spirit, Helland shows how to live out a deeper biblical experience of the Holy Spirit and the manifest presence of God.

The way of the pilgrim begins with what we leave behind - not so much a journey to a holy place, but a holy practice of leaving the comforts of the familiar for a radical vulnerability, letting the very breath of God direct us on the unknown, stripped-down path of trust.

This book offers a unique perspective on the faith journey as an embodied practice of heading into the unknown.
