"Gifted storyteller Ken Jones inspires you to a rock-solid commitment to Christ, a deeper level of entrusting all you have and all you are to His keeping. Commitment, he insists, means climbing with Christ to new heights of spiritual maturity - no matter what it takes." "There is no doubt that sometimes the climb will be grueling. But, as Jones points out, Jesus climbed first and beckons you now to follow in His footsteps. He is there to help you dig in your heels when you are slipping and to hold you tightly when storms threaten to blow you about." "As Jones skillfully weaves stories about Little League and other slices of modern life with vignettes of Jesus from the Gospels, he follows Christ's climb - first down from heaven to take His place among men and then higher and higher toward the summit of the cross." "Sometimes heartwarming and poignant and sometimes laugh-out-loud funny, these stories have one thing in common: They illustrate with stunning clarity what it means to climb with Jesus."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
