Blog posts and stories from Rock-N-Water about Christian Camps.
Imagine you’re standing at the top of a tall pole. It’s quite a bit higher off the ground than you are comfortable with. A few feet in front of you is a bar. Your task is to jump out off of the pole and grab the bar. If you miss the bar you’ll fall. It [...]
Dignity. What is it? It's something we all want. It's something we also want other people to have. We claim we have a right to it as if it's something we can buy. But have you ever really thought about what it really means to have dignity? Dignity Defined If you look it up in [...]
Last year we had a camp saying; “So 2020 it ain’t even funny”… Maybe one day we’ll be able to look back on 2020 and laugh, but it’s still isn’t that far in the past. I think it’s safe to say that 2020 was not anyone’s favorite year. It was a year full of so [...]
