The Sun Has Risen

A Lesson in Poor Choices, Divine Intervention, and Life's Unyielding Teachings

A Book About Faith, Fear, and Finding the Path Home.

They set out to climb a mountain. That was the plan, anyway.
Two missionaries serving in Argentina wanted one simple P-day adventure: reach a summit, enjoy the view, make it home in time for dinner, and perhaps, if providence smiled, eat a meal at the Hotel Cervantes.
The Andes Mountains had other ideas.

By It I See All Things 

What began as a determined climb became a long, dangerous night of wrong turns, hidden cliffs, cactus-related misfortunes, and the dawning realization that confidence is not quite the same thing as wisdom.
But somewhere in the darkness, one question kept returning:
What does it really mean to believe in Jesus Christ?
Months earlier, they had heard the words attributed to C. S. Lewis:
“I believe in Jesus Christ like I believe that the sun has risen, not because I see it, but because by it I see all things.”
At first, the quote seemed beautiful but baffling. Then came the mountain. Then came the darkness.
​

Then came the light.

😂 Equal Parts Laughter and Reverence

With humor, honesty, and reverence, The Sun Has Risen tells the story of a young missionary who discovers that faith is not merely something we claim to see in ourselves.

It is the light by which we see everything else.
​

This book is part adventure, part spiritual memoir, and part confession of highly questionable judgment in the outdoors.
​It is a story of danger and grace, fear and laughter, wandering and return.
