First off, I'd like to apologize for not getting the devotions up the last few weeks. &nbsp;We have had some technical difficulties that altered our ability to upload.&nbsp; This episode was uploaded several weeks ago after Jon got home from his time away in the mountains.

354 - Devotions with Christian Outdoors - Aloneness

This week's devotion focuses on staying faithful where you are. &nbsp;This is often easier said than done but our lives will be more effective when living faithfully where we than longing to live faithfully somewhere else.&nbsp;

358 - Devotion with Christian Outdoors

In 1 Peter 2.9 Peter quotes from the Old Testament and tells his audience that they are a royal priesthood. &nbsp;What exactly does that mean? &nbsp;Today Jon offers some applications that should touch all of our lives. Wish to talk about this further or have Jon speak at your next event? &nbsp;Contact Jon at . &nbsp;

360 - Devotions with Christian Outdoors - A Royal Priesthood

In John 4 we read about an encounter that Jesus had with a lady at a well in Samaria. &nbsp;Prior to this we learn that the religious elite wouldn't even enter into Samaria due to their prejudices. &nbsp;The question we must ask ourselves is, are my prejudices limited my ability to live holy and to offer hope to the world?

362 - Devotions with Christian Outdoors - Pharisee or Jesus: which one are you?

Today Jon discusses how our fears do not get us off the hook from fulfilling God's call on our lives. Sure some days we feel scared, unqualifed and inadequate but our God isn't scared, He is qualified and He is adequate. &nbsp; Wish to discuss this further? &nbsp;Hit Jon up at Jon@christianoutdoors.org

364 - Devotions with Christian Outdoors - Eaten By a German Shepherd

In this episode, host Zach Urness talks with outdoors intern Rose Shimberg about backpacking the 40-mile trail around Mount Hood: the Timberline Trail.

In late August, Shimberg spent three nights backpacking the loop, journeying through terrain including waterfalls, high alpine landscapes, lush forests and deep canyons. 

She reports on how to navigate the trail's notorious stream crossings and the status of the "blowdown section" that was closed for years by downed trees. Shimberg also talks about where to find cell service, find an amazing breakfast and spots on the trail to not miss.
