A pastor walks out of the church and into the woods, in pursuit of the God he's lost.
When Tony walked out of the church and into the woods, he left the orderly pews and numbered hymns for chaotic spaces and untamed wilderness. And he re-discovered God — a God who brings peace in the midst of storms, a God who lives in the community of our fellow creatures, a God who's acquainted with death.
This is the God of wild places.
