He has identifiedfive key mile markers in the Christian journey that should mark andilluminate the road every Christian is traveling.It starts with having a clear, compelling, catalytic vision for yourlife, that includes the gifts, passions, abilities, personality, and lifeexperiences that God has uniquely given to each of His incrediblecreations.
