Trajectory: Living Into A Greater Story

The study devotional, Trajectory is designed to help athletes, coaches, and the like encounter a deeper look of knowing more truly who they are in Christ beyond what they do in sport. Jesus prayed specifically for you in John 17, asking His Father for all of us to come to truly know Him. This knowing is on the face to face level of knowing someone like you would through conversation and exchange of story. There are many pathways in life, the question is, the one you are on, where is it headed? God desires for us to know Him deeply and in turn grow in knowing ourselves. This is the trajectory He desires for us, will you take it? The hopes of this devotional, is to be a guide as you pursue the trajectory to grow in knowing Him.
