  • Season 2, Episode 8: Chat with Gordon Jackson about his new book, Sit, Stand, Walk, Run
    Jun 30 2025

    Join a fun chat about inspiration and spiritual growth and personal journeys as editors Tamera Lynn Kraft and Michelle Levigne "grill" Gordon Jackson about his new book, Sit, Stand, Walk Run.

    Make sure you check out MtZionRidgePress.com and use the code RUN (make sure to use all caps) to claim your discount on a print or ebook purchase of his book. Good through the end of July.

    Sit, Stand, Walk, Run—A Vocabulary for the Christian’s Journey is a compilation of 46 reflections on the different stages characterizing the believer’s faith journey. These stages, or postures taken along our Christian journey, range from “Waiting,” when God may seem inactive in our lives, to “Mountaintops,” experiences that are a spiritual high point. Other reflections include “Baby Steps,” as we begin our faith journey, to “Stumbling and Falling,” when we sin. Like doctors, architects, police officers and others engaged in specialized activities, theologians too have their own specialized vocabulary. But ordinary lay people don’t have to have formal training in theology to benefit from knowing and using the “journey-related” terms in this book. Having a richer vocabulary that describes our Christian journey enables us to better understand our ever deepening relationship with God our Father. Sit, Stand, Walk, Run provides the reader with that expanded vocabulary.

But then come choices, personal and professional. When their ideas of how to use their music for ministry conflict with the ambitious plans of their manager, they could lose everything they've been working for. And then there's Kurt, a friend/sometimes nemesis from childhood, who has come back to town to prepare for a big crusade. Dani believes God has called her to ministry, not marriage .... but Kurt tries to convince her she can do and have both. What can Dani do when she starts to second-guess every decision? Especially when Kurt looks at her like that .....
