Hey guys!

This episode Ben and Elizabeth share with us some of their camping experiences. They first draw our attention to the beauties of creation.

Psalm 19 “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaim His handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.”

Creation sings to us a song! It draws us in and compels us to worship our glorious God. Ben poses the question “are we inhaling the beauties of creation and letting it do its work in us?”

Andrew Davis is quoted “As we walked as children through the beauty of a forest in the splendor of fall, breathing in deeply the musty smells of the forest floor, feeling the warm breezes of a late fall afternoon on our faces, having our breath stolen by the fiery glory of a sudden scenic vista, a magnificent mountain valley, splashed with vivid reds and golds of trees preparing for the impending winter, our hearts were being shaped for the central reality of the universe: Almighty God.”

We learn in this episode that behind the mess of camping (which is painted for us) the glories of God are nonetheless in it. Ben and Elizabeth walk through some of their family camping experiences and flush out some camping take aways.

Enjoy!

This is our OG Dodge Caravan - the last and only time we slept in it instead of putting up a tent. We froze our tails off that night. Poor Levi.
