Colliding with the Call: When Following God Takes You to the Wilderness

I’ve surrendered to following God’s will, but this is not what I expected. Where’s the peace? The joy? The fruit? Did I somehow miss the call, God?

Sound familiar? Those were Corella’s questions, too, as she found herself in a literal and spiritual wilderness after answering the call to become a missionary teacher in remote Alaska. Through these pages, you’ll journey with her to unearth glimpses of God’s purpose for those seven dark years. With tenderness and conviction, she examines the reality of the wilderness in the life of the believer and the scriptural truths that offer hope in the midst of disappointment.

Corella’s story of undoing and rebirth in the wilderness just might be your story, too, if you dare to let God take you there.
