After living in Mexico and rock climbing all season in El Potrero Chico, Mike Burdon thought he was taking a day off to go canyoneering in the Matacanes Canyon.

For the next few episodes of Adventure Cross I'll be reading my book, Are There Horses in Heaven. Its the true story of the Cowart Family who raised and trained Show Horses. Their daughter, Love, and her best friend, Franny had crazy adventures on horseback and also suffered terrible tragedies. 

I hope you'll enjoy hearing these adventures that point to the Cross.

Cole Davis grew up rock climbing, mountain biking, racing dirtbikes and pushing limits on everything. He also got hurt - a lot. But nothing compared to his last injury when he broke his back snowboarding. Listen to his story about how he overcame depression and frustration in the midst of recovery.

Honey Davis is left behind. She is locked inside a cave without a light, without a phone, or even a watch light. No one knows where she is. She cannot move for fear of falling into pits to her right and left. What does she do when the darkness is so heavy it feels like an evil presence?

Chris Carter grew up in Africa where he encountered Lions and Hyenas, but on his through hike of the Continental Divide Trail he ran into one mad Grizzly Bear. We hope you will enjoy these adventures that pointed Chris to the Cross. 

Swimming horses in the hot Alabama summer is fun until its not. A lot can go wrong when you're skinny dipping so be careful to hang onto your shirt.

"Do something that Scares you every day." Does rappelling down the face of a 450 foot granite mountain in the middle of the worst lightning storm you could imagine with a group of young boys count?

He learns to discern the difference between the bullying, paralyzing fear vs. friendly fear. What are the facts and truth of this situation as he relies on God's sovereignty.

Featuring the music from our good friend, Garrett Randolph: Back in the South Again. A song about climbing legend SFL (Steve Longenecker) who pioneered the NOSE route up Looking Glass Rock in Pisgah National Forest.
