CLIMBING THE SECOND MOUNTAIN
God does some of his most meaningful work on mountains. Think about some of the leaders in the Bible who were drawn to high places and experienced transformation. Moses. Elijah. Jesus. For many of us, climbing the first mountain of life involves discovering our identity, finding faith, establishing relationships, building a career and creating security. But there is a second mountain of life where we can find deeper meaning and spiritual maturity….if we choose to climb it.
