Wilderness Ministries
(WILD|MIN)
But Jesus Himself would often slip away to the wilderness and pray.
Luke 5:16 (NASB)
The wilderness has always been a cherished place and sanctuary for me. Even at a young age, it provided exploration, test, and formation that I in my immaturity had no idea was occurring. It also provided a means of worship that was natural to me.
From my time learning survival in the military through SERE and realizing God’s sovereign provision both physical and spiritual, to my time post military as a professional wilderness guide, I look back and see that I was continuously being equipped for this role. Not for my own benefit, but in order to share God’s love with others through His Creation and leading them to a relationship with His Son, Jesus Christ.
Through customized wilderness guiding experiences from my own expertise in hunting, fishing, rock climbing, mountaineering, backpacking, bike-packing, and paddle trips, you will experience worship, closeness, and discipleship from Our Father. Recognizing, of course, these activities are merely a vehicle to communing with Him. I will design a trip around your personal interests and ability level that will challenge, grow, and encourage your relationship with God. All levels of interest are welcome, all that is required is an open and willing heart. Email shepherdscovecounseling@gmail.com to get started on your incredible journey!
