Lessons from the Trail

Losing a spouse, a child, or even a close friend strikes us as incomprehensible. A living individual, singularly unique among the history of all humanity and capable of so much love and creativity, ceases to be. We are left to wonder why, but we do so without any answers. We deal with this absurdity of existence through grief, but what if the grieving process were an adventure?

This is a true story of how one man's death opened up a great adventure of God revealing his abiding love in the lives of those left behind, as told by his best friend and mountain-biking companion. His journey reveals how the great Redeemer orchestrated past experiences to help him get through the difficult week leading up to the memorial service, in which he is called to deliver the eulogy. Sad and humorous, exciting and contemplative, familiar and mysterious, the inspiring events of the two men will temper the sting of death and renew hope in a wonderful eternity that awaits all who believe in Jesus Christ.
