"As Christians we sometimes confuse transformation with transportation. Our transformation from sinful to sinless is the supernatural gift of God through his Son's crucifixion and resurrection. It is free. It is marvelous. We need only to ask for this wonderful gift. The miracle does not stop here but the free ride does. The rest of the journey is all us. There are no hitchhikers in heaven. Christ requires from each of us to pick up our cross and follow him. In our hastiness to explain the resurrection story we fail to mention that Christ is the way - the truth - the map - the path - not the bus. We are the bus driver. We are responsible for driving, washing, cleaning, registering, insuring, and gathering other passengers. We are Christ's transporters. Chris has captured this concept with his climb with Christ. He has taken Deuteronomy 2:3 (Ye have compassed this mountain long enough, turn ye northward) and told us to stop waiting at the base and to start preparing for the climb. In this powerful book Chris has lovingly and masterfully described both the transformation and transportation of his life. I loved it and I am sure you will as well."
