Throughout our lives, we will make many journeys and have encounters, experiences and challenges that will bring a richness to our lives, teach us something new, and take us in a new direction or on a different path.

Encounters and Journeys collects three years' worth of my Monday Thoughts, a weekly devotional message. The book shares many personal 'encounter' moments, experiences, and thoughts, along with other connected themes, which were written during the difficult years of the Covid Pandemic.

One of my most significant encounters was with the person of Jesus as a teenager, and my journey with Him has been both wonderful and challenging at times, but He has been faithful as I have travelled with Him.
