I really appreciate how you drew out the parallels between Bilbo’s unexpected journey and Abraham’s call. It’s such a needed reminder that faith often asks us to step into the unknown—away from the comfort of our “Shire”—and trust God with the path ahead. Beautifully written and deeply encouraging.

Thank you so much for this thoughtful response, Mandy. In my experience faith rarely unfolds on the map we’d prefer, but God’s invitations into the unknown are always where His deepest work takes place. I’m grateful this post encouraged you!

thanks, Brother. sometimes I feel more like Gollum than Bilbo. May we all rise to the challenges that are laid before us.
