Publisher's Synopsis
The 'High Country Hikers Edition' of Hiking Life's Difficult Trails contains the same, life-changing information as the original edition, yet also adds a short but uniquely organized daily devotional at the end of the book, arranged by the author himself. Its purpose is to teach and inspire explicitly those who are partial to the more glorious treks of the high mountains. Hiking Life's Difficult Trails is a spiritual journey--an arduous challenge. This particular journey is better suited to those who have learned to live with remorse--earned through a broad diversity of loss, pain and suffering. There are those who in time develop what it takes to negotiate difficult terrain in life, and there are those who do not. Yet, to have what it takes has only one requirement--humility. We all fail in one way or another each day. Admit it or not, we just can't seem to attain perfection. We usually blame God for our inability to live as we should, but then praise Him when He allows things to get a little better. We just can't seem to find a way to be content in our circumstances, and be thankful for both the good ones and the bad ones. But, the bottom line is, we actually have some profound misunderstandings--about life, about circumstances, and about God Himself. It's time once again to hike along with award-winning author, Mark Stephen Taylor. In this third volume, he takes us back to the Wilderness Trail--not just to hike along its rim, but to explore its depths--to hike up its buttes, among its sharp crags, and into its areas of parched desolation. Mr. Taylor helps us to better understand the difficulties of this earthly life, and leads us along a most profound trail of discovery, illumination, and hope. Hiking is indeed great therapy. So, what are you waiting for? C'mon along--lets do it!
