\"Base<\/a><\/p>\n

All those who dare to summit Mount Everest have to spend time at base camp before they make their climb. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s not that they lack\u00a0the right tools for their expedition, rather their bodies aren’t prepared for the rigors of the journey. \u00a0The air is simply too thin to make the climb even with oxygen tanks. \u00a0Their bodies need to acclimatize to the thin air by doubling the count of red blood cells they have which will be\u00a0used to cary what little oxygen exists on the mountain to their vital organs. \u00a0If climbers fail to acclimatize to the thin air, they\u00a0will die quickly on their ascent. \u00a0So in order to prepare for their climb, they spend time at base camp to let their bodies make more red blood cells.<\/p>\n

Pastors and ministry leaders need to spend time at base camp as well. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sure we have all the right tools for leading others in ministry, but our souls\u00a0need time to acclimatize to the harsh ministry environments that we are\u00a0exposed to. \u00a0Sin is as toxic to us as pastors and ministry leaders as the thin air is to climbers. \u00a0If we don’t spend time at a spiritual base camp, sin’s toxicity will begin depleting our souls of the life giving Spirit that we need to lead others.<\/p>\n

Therefore, I want to invite you to the first BASE CAMP for pastors and ministry leaders! \u00a0<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Awaken Ministry is hosting a quarterly Base Camp for all pastors and ministry leaders in the Denver Area in order to acclimatize our soul’s for the journey of leading others in ministry.<\/strong><\/h3>\n
