About this book
Is your spiritual imagination up to the task of following Jesus's vision for healing our broken world? "Gradually, very gradually, we saw the great mountain sides and glaciers... until far higher in the sky than imagination had dared suggest the white summit of Everest appeared." âGeorge Mallory, 1924 Everest climbing expedition leader The Jesus Climb crafts George Mallory's quest to climb the world's tallest mountain into a parable illustrating how Jesus trained his first students to summit the world's greatest commandment. Like Mallory peering too low on the horizon to see Everest's peak towering above him, the lack of Christlikeness in modern Christianity stems from our inability to imagine the impossible heights to which Jesus calls us. The Jesus Climb draws upon the life and teachings of Jesus and the experiences of some of history's greatest spiritual and physical mountaineers to map out eight "expedition camps" through which Jesus guides every student seeking to follow him.We will never be able to join Jesus in his mission to heal our broken world until he transformed us into the kind of people who can love God and neighbor as he didâthe kind of people he called "disciples."
