Beneath the summit of Mount Everest lies a place known as “Base Camp.” Veteran climbers know that Base Camp isn’t just a waypoint on the trail map. It’s a defining location. It’s the place where climbers are re-schooled in the disciplines essential to making the journey ahead. Not even the best guide can predict exactly what conditions or crises the climbers may face, but the practices taught at Base Camp–if owned and applied–can make all the difference. As you head into this fall and winter season, let Christ Church be your Base Camp. Join us each week as we reflect on a key practice that is essential for making the most of your journey ahead. No one can say whether the months before you will be filled with snowstorms or sunshine. But with these practices and the companions you’ll find here, we can make the summit together.
