Amy Smallwood, president of the Christian Adventure Association recently endorsed Ashley Denton’s book Christian Outdoor Leadership: Theology, Theory, and Practice:
Ashley’s years of experience in youth ministry and wilderness adventures set the stage for this journey through the Scriptures in search of a theology of wilderness ministry. For many of us who are involved in leading wilderness expeditions, this book fills a long-standing gap in the literature of our field by providing a Scriptural basis for the significance of the wilderness environment as a ministry platform. In this, Ashley Denton has given us a great gift.
