SWITCHBACKS | AUgust 8-13, 2021
Our Five-Day Adventure backpacking retreat is a tremendous spiritual journey in the secluded Tahoe backcountry. We will grow in our relationship with God and with each other.
While out in the backcountry, we’ll explore God’s Word in His playground. We’ll challenge ourselves to grow in Christ through quiet times, campfires, hiking, teachings, climbing and natural waterslides. Our adventure guides at Rock-N-Water will lead the technical adventure while our Switchbacks Team (NCCC’s Wendy Hinman and Natalie Demille) will lead the spiritual journey.
For more information, contact Windy Hinman at wendy@northcoastcalvary.org.

The journey…
We’ll backpack on the first day to our base camp in the Sierra Mountain Wilderness, spending a few days there, canyoneering, rock climbing and being with God. Then we’ll spend a day backpacking back out of the backcountry. To celebrate, we’ll spend our last day river rafting (a class III so it is moderate) on the South Fork of the American River.
The dates for Switchbacks 2021 are August 8th-13th. Cost per person is approximately $500 ($419 for the Rock-N-Water adventure plus food and gas to get to Desolation Wilderness in the Tahoe area.)
This adventure is limited to 16 people so sign up early!
THE TOPOGRAPHY OF DISCIPLESHIP
The greatest need in the church today is discipleship, being a disciple and helping others along this journey. The Biblical illiteracy stats alone spotlights this. Only 32 percent of regularly attending churchgoers in America read their Bible regularly. A young believer friend, saved in high school, floundered in her new faith until someone came alongside her and they focused together on the rudimentary elements of walking with Jesus. It was like her friend gave her a compass, a map and a headlamp to find her way along a dark trail.
This is the Topography of Discipleship; it’s a training in how to use the compass of the Word, the map of the Holy Spirit and the headlamp of prayer and worship to be a disciple. If you’ve already been on this hike for a while, it’s also a training in how to make disciples. Each month, we will share a weekly 10-minute training on discipleship. These will also have offline resources to enrich each subject. We are not meant to walk alone; we hope you’ll join us as we explore the challenging terrain of being a disciple in 2021.

GRIT ONLINE
Sports force us to be present in each moment. It turns baseball players into poets and surfers into scientists. Whole Life Sports is bringing our Grit events online in monthly video and audio podcasts to explore how to integrate faith and sport. We will interview athletes and coaches on why sport is so primal to the development of personality, strength of soul and joy in being.
New interviews will release on the fourth Thursday of each month so check back often for new content!
