Adventures in Discipleship

We are anticipating an incredible adventure in 2008. We have decided not to continue on staff with Climbing for Christ in 2008. Todd will attempt to reestablish his tree service company as well as continue working for Signature research. On the ministry front is Adventures in Discipleship (see web link on sidebar) kind of a freelance wilderness ministry. Kris and I are excited to be the leaders of a One Another Group at our local church and Todd is looking forward to becoming more involved in the teen club.

2007 seemed to be more valleys than peaks looking back but God has a plan and is using those experience to conform us to the image of Christ.

still climbing,

Mountain Meditation by Oswald

"We have all experienced times of exaltation on the mountain, when we have seen things from God's perspective and have wanted to stay there. But God will never allow us to stay there. The true test of our spiritual life is in exhibiting the power to descend from the mountain. If we only have the power to go up, something is wrong. It is a wonderful thing to be on the mountain with God, but a person only gets there so that he may later go down and lift up the demon-oppressed people in the valley. We are not made for the mountains, for sunrises, or for other beautiful attractions in life -- those are simply intended to be moments of inspiration. We are made for the valley and the ordinary things of life, and that is where we have to prove our stamina and strength." --Oswald Chambers
