What if the way you connect with God is totally different than how your spouse does? Is that OK? Rob Philo and Gary Thomas, author and speaker, explore the sacred pathways—nine ways to connect with God. They discuss the differences in each pathway and how every person has a unique wiring, contributing to how they experience and worship God. This affects many couples in their marriage—what if my spouse and I have a different sacred pathway? Does this mean we aren’t compatible? How can we honor our differences and still feel connected to one another and the Lord? This conversation is incredibly enlightening for individuals and couples. Learn more about the sacred pathways from the author of the book himself.
