Route 66—Alliance Redwoods
In the
beautiful hills of Northern California there is a Christian Camp that means a
great deal to me. It is situated among the majestic redwood trees of the Coast
Range Mountains, sheltered in a misty valley along Dutch Bill Creek. There
God’s people retreat to worship and praise the Creator of all that surrounds
them. Many activities are available at Alliance Redwoods but what I especially
enjoy when I retreat there are the many trails. Because of the location of the
camp along the creek, all the trails lead uphill and hiking the trails at
Alliance is strenuous but well worth the effort. God and I meet on those
trails.
Any hiker who
is not inclined to remember God is forcefully reminded of Him by the Route 66
signs that pop up every now and then. There are 66 signs, one for each book of
the Bible, not in any particular order. They are placed randomly and finding
them all is quite an effort.
Will you hike with me and think about the verses we
encounter? Perhaps we will memorize some of them so that we can continue to meditate on their meaning.
