A Rule of the Road

Choosing Presence, Love, and Faith Along the Way

By: Geoffrey Schmitt

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

What if faith is not about arriving at certainty, but learning how to walk faithfully when answers are incomplete?

A Rule of the Road offers a gentle, lived approach to Christian spirituality shaped by decades of ministry, marriage, loss, prison chaplaincy, and pastoral presence. Rather than presenting doctrines to master or techniques to perfect, this book offers a set of guiding commitments — a rule of life for those walking the long road of faith.

Each chapter explores a simple but demanding choice:

presence over answers,

relationship over results,

love before usefulness,

being before doing,

listening before explaining,

staying rather than fixing,

weakness as a doorway for grace,

community as formation,

love that endures,

and humility that keeps faith unfinished and alive.

Rooted in Scripture (KJV), prayer, and real experience, A Rule of the Road invites readers to slow down, stay present, and trust that God walks with us even when clarity does not come quickly — or at all.

This is not a book about getting faith right.

It is a companion for learning how to keep walking.
