way of the righteous

TRAIL TRANSFORMATION

challenge your limitations

into the wilderness

step out of your comfort zone and into the wild. Escape from all the noise of daily distractions. hike in silence for one mile in honor of your intentions. there is deep meaning in the momentum.

spiritual reflections

welcoming the transcendent

rise above the meaningless small talk and connect with god through nature. we will pray, but more importantly, we will listen. "to set the mind on the spirit is life and peace" romans 8:6.

collaborate and learn

engage in the discourse

after a hearty meal we will sit and engage as our ancestors did. there will be an open discussion with lessons from the greatest minds in psychology, philosophy, and religion. that which is not transformed will be transmitted.

THIS IS MORE THAN A HIKE

24-HOUR INTENSIVE

HIKE AT SUNRISE, PRAY, EAT WELL, AND SETTLE IN FOR A FIRESIDE CHAT FROM A LICENSED PROFESSIONAL. CAMP OVERNIGHT AND LEAVE AT SUNRISE TO WORSHIP ON THE LORD'S DAY. TRANSFORMATION REQUIRES DISCOMFORT. THIS IS NOT GLAMPING. WE EMBRACE MINIMALISM.

EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE

    "Blessed is the person who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit in the seat of scoffers! But his delight is in the Law of the Lord, And on His Law he meditates day and night. He will be like a tree planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season, And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers. The wicked are not so, But they are like chaff which the wind blows away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked will perish." Psalm 1 (NASB)
