"Preach to yourself and you can be pretty sure you will hit most of your congregation." Bill King got that advice as a young pastor and it underlies this accessible and engaging book of short devotions. Originally written as online meditations, the pithy reflections in Bread for the Journey draw on art, pastoral encounters, books, podcasts, and significant cultural events, such as the mass shooting at Virginia Tech. King places them in conversation with the Bible and the Christian tradition, inviting readers to see how experiences, both mundane and earthshaking, may be filled with spiritual insight.

Organized around the seasons of the church year, Bread for the Journey invites readers to reflect on their own times of waiting and darkness, hope and light, death and rebirth, struggle and growth. Written in a conversational, often whimsical style, it is ideal for those seeking a devotional resource which connects Scripture to life's gifts and challenges.

The devotions in Bread for the Journey range from funny to poignant. Always thoughtful and sometimes profound, King offers an over the shoulder look at how one pastor connects the Christian tradition to daily life.

Bill King is a retired pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. During his ministry he served as pastor of Our Saviour Lutheran Church in Welcome, North Carolina, for 30 years as Lutheran Campus Pastor at Virginia Tech, on the national campus ministry staff of the ELCA, and as pastor of Luther Memorial Lutheran Church in Blacksburg, Virginia.
