Blueprints: Biblical Designs for Christian Camping: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

Rate this book
Few tools in God's toolbox are as effective as Christian camping. Children, young people, and adults make life-changing as well as eternity-changing decisions at camp. So, why does it work? Maybe the answer lies in God's magnificent design for our world. Maybe God built us to be campers! Maybe the more we align ourselves with God's design, the more we become aware of God's glory seen in creation and more open to the good news provided in God's Word.




Blueprints examines several biblical passages to discover God's design for Christian camping. And to understand why the ingredients of time, relocation, relationships, creation, and spiritual intents coalesce to form the recipe for transformational moments.

Very specific truth for the camp context - but a wealth of wisdom and Bible truths that are super helpful for the camp leader and refreshing reminder of the importance of what we do. Definite recommend to any in full time camp ministry!

An excellent look at the heart behind Christian camping ministry, but not a lot of practical steps.
