Letters along the Way: From a Senior Saint to a Junior Saint
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
When student Tim Journeyman first wrote to family friend Dr. Paul Woodson, he didn’t know it would start a fifteen-year mentorship that would shape his life and Christian faith. Within their candid letters are words of real-world wisdom—from a “senior saint” to a “junior saint”—covering various areas of living, from the theological to the everyday.
Written as fictional correspondence between two men at different stages of life and faith, the novel Letters Along the Way provides important, biblical perspectives on topics such as apologetics, science and faith, inerrancy of the Bible, heart versus head faith, prayer, the changing face of evangelicalism, and trends emerging in American culture.

My wife and I read this book together during my first year as D. A. Carson’s teaching assistant and PhD student. We loved it. Reading these fictional letters is almost as personal as if you wrote a challenging theological or practical question to Carson and Woodbridge themselves and then received a thoughtful reply. Now I use this book as a resource for mentoring seminary students.

When I was a relatively young believer beginning to explore a calling to pastoral ministry, my pastor encouraged me to read this book. It has become one of the most formative books for me. I’ve read it and reread it more times than I can count, and am beyond thrilled to see it being relaunched so that a new generation can enjoy its wisdom and insight. In a time sadly lacking in character and statesmanship in the church, I am confident this book will become a huge blessing to many.
