From Calling to Covenant: A Journey Toward Wholeness
Blending biblical symbolism with psychological insight, this work explores the human journey through awakening, trial, responsibility, and community. It reveals how physical, mental, and spiritual growth are formed through struggle and relationship, offering a thoughtful path toward meaning and wholeness.
The First Calling
The body awakens, the mind questions, and the spirit stirs—marking the beginning of a life shaped by growth and meaning.
The Wilderness
In trial and uncertainty, the self is tested, refined, and formed through endurance rather than escape.
The Covenant
Wholeness is revealed in relationship, as the individual is called to responsibility, service, and shared life.
The Gate of Suffering
When hardship comes, one must choose—to turn away, or to remain and be made whole within the community.
