There is a definite parallel between what happens in the realm of the spirit, and in the natural. In this book, we will explore the similarities between a whitewater rafting experience (considered an "extreme sport") and life itself (which also at times takes on the characteristics of an "extreme sport"). Understanding the parallels will facilitate the proper and accurate discernment of the challenges that we experience - and what we tell ourselves about our ability to navigate them successfully. It is imperative that we learn how to seek and receive the Lord's instruction, as we are planning our journey, and begin our quest to fulfill our purpose on the earth. Once the journey begins in earnest, we must be mindful that we remain connected to the One who has a view of the entire expanse of river. Nothing can happen to us that has not already happened to someone else at some other time. Furthermore, it will happen again, to someone else. Everything that will happen in the future has already occurred.
