By "answer" I didn't mean something concrete. Your thoughts, i.e. "The only answers available to us come out of faith, which is a process, not a destination," would fit within my idea of an answer.

I've told my kids what I believe and I've explained that most other people believe in God in some form. Of course, they want to know why someone would believe in God and why people pray, etc. We have talked about how there are many different religions but most share some common features. They enjoy reading Greek and Norse mythology and Bible stories.

For myself, I don't really have a spiritual journey to share unless you count coming to the realization that I am not a spiritual person. If they are spiritual people, they will have to discover that for themselves. I can't fake it.
