Description: In Lost but Making Excellent Time, Jody Seymour reminds readers that the ways and pace of our fast-track world lead to a place where we discover that we are traveling at breakneck speed but that our spirits are being left behind. Seymour uses prose and poetry to reclaim the ancient cycle of the Christian year as a new way to slow down and discover who we really are. The Christian year becomes a kind of compass to be used so that travelers through our rat-race existence can become aware that we are really fashioned by a Master Hand not to be tourists but pilgrims. The words of this book can become a kind of ""pilgrim's guide"" to keep readers from being lost while making excellent time. About the Contributor(s): Jody Seymour is the Senior Pastor of Davidson United Methodist Church in Davidson, North Carolina. He is the author of three other books: Looking for God in All the Wrong Places? (1990), A Time for Healing: Overcoming the Perils of Ministry (1995), and Finding God between the Lines (1997).
