Glacier, Disneyland, or Costa Rica? Finding Revelation on the Road

The planning stages of any family adventure can be just as memorable as the trip itself. Remember those frantic pre-trip Google searches, the spreadsheets meticulously detailing itineraries, the endless debates over packing lists? This week’s episode of This Is Kingdom captures that beautifully—with a twist of playful banter. The crew kicks off a conversation about their dream family trip, bouncing between Glacier National Park, New York, Costa Rica, and, of course, Tokyo Disney. It's a silly, relatable moment that quickly spirals into a deeper reflection on the power of Christ’s presence.

What started as a lighthearted discussion became a profound meditation on Elder Ronald A. Rasband’s General Conference talk, “He Is Risen!” The image of Jesus ministering to 2,500 souls after His resurrection – blessing children one by one – is truly staggering. As Talon put it, “Whatever you need from me right now, I have the ability to give it to you.” It’s a potent reminder that no burden is too great, no need too small, for the risen Christ to address.

For Rogue Adventurers, this isn’t just a theological concept; it's a lived experience. It's the feeling of connection shared around a campfire after a long day of backcountry hiking, the unexpected kindness of a stranger offering trail magic, the shared joy of discovering a hidden waterfall. It’s the heart of why we travel – not just to see new places, but to encounter the divine in the everyday.

And speaking of shared experiences, consider the possibilities: a rock-climbing meet-up in the Tetons, a field trip to Proof Breads in Mesa for a lesson in artisan baking, or even a family-friendly climbing day at a local gym. These aren't just vacations; they're opportunities to build community, to share our faith, and to create lasting memories.

CrockyGo and Decorated Bills: Spreading Joy on the Road

As you and your family journey, remember to pack your CrockyGo rocks! These painted stones are a simple yet powerful way to lift the spirits of those you encounter along the way. Leaving a Crocky at a trailhead or rest stop is a small act of kindness that can have a ripple effect, spreading joy and connection. Similarly, don't forget to spend those decorated Currency Kids bills (Bennys, Abes, Tommys, Andys, Grants) at Rogue Network vendor storefronts – each bill a tiny gospel tract traveling in your pocket.
