My ideal church would meet outdoors on a mountain top or by a babbling brook full of bass, tout and/or catfish.

Jesus was big on taking his disciples sailing, fishing, hiking in the wilderness, climbing up high mountains apart... all the outdoor guy stuff.

The Messiah just might get lost in... Cabela's!

LOL! People at work think I am weird because I have a nature map of the United States from the Sierra Club and I come to work with an NRA bag.

They ask me how I can support two such different organizations. I reply with a straight face "You have to save the animals before you can shoot them."

I love the way you put it. All the outdoor guy stuff with Jesus.

There is a Christ centered outdoor adventure program for boys and young men called Trail Life USA (traillifeusa.com)

That’s exactly our mission. “To guide generations of courageous young men to honor God, lead with integrity, serve others and experience outdoor adventure.”

I knw of a handful of Trailmen (as we call them) who are canoeing in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula this week. A few others got together to canoe a river in Ohio over the weekend.

Nest Sunday, over 100 will get together for a summer adventure camp. Among a whole bunch of other stuff, I have 15,000 rounds of .22 long rifle in our spare bedroom ready to take to camp. I’ve also got a couple miles of rope for the rafts the Trailmen will lash together.

We’re still Open for Adventure
