Finding Your Way

Discipleship & Christian Education

“As I read Phillip Camp's words to seminarians, I couldn't help thinking all the way through that nearly everything he was saying could have come directly out of my own experience with seminarians . . . and from my experience as a former seminarian myself. Camp's wisely honest, deadly serious, gently ironic, and downright funny advice will steer his readers not only through the dread Fire Swamp of seminary education, but also into the beginnings of a successful experience in ministry. Those of us weaned on Thielicke's classic little essay will deeply appreciate this timely update. I'll be recommending Camp's lively and accessible volume to my students for years to come. I only wish I written it myself! Actually, I wish I'd read it forty years ago!”
