Synopsis
Throughout the Bible, mountains are places of dramatic encounter with God. Noah on Ararat, Moses on Sinai, Elijah on Carmel and the disciples with Jesus on the mountain of transfiguration are just some of the life-changing mountain top experiences. Mountains, like prayer, are challenging and require much of us. The Prayer Mountain takes readers on a climbing tour often mountains of the spiritual life, and encourages them in their own ascent toward the presence of God.
