A simple song of blessing and benediction to send people on the road knowing that God is with us and that we're not alone as we take to the road. This one will work well with the "Day 7" "Beyond Belief" 2018 Outdoor Ministries Camp Curriculum theme, "What If We Go Beyond?" The title and lyric was inspired in part by author Anne Lammot's book "Traveling Mercies." Learn More

This song was written specifically to match the "Day 5" Scripture and Theme of the 2018 "Beyond Belief" Outdoor Ministries Camp curriculum published by Chalice Press. The Scripture is the amazing encounter of Jesus and the Syrophoenician Woman in Mark 7:24-30, and the theme for the day is "What If We Speak Up?" Sometimes speaking up is hard and requires courage and strength to "find our voices." This song is a prayer for that courage and grace and the ability to know when it's time to speak up. Learn More

Out of the grand tradition of mixer songs such as "Shake Another Hand," it comes. With verses encouraging running, playing, dancing, safe touch and general silliness, the song helps youth do what they want to do anyway-- get to know one another and stretch out with some healthy risks to do so. Perfect for opening night of camp.

Resilience, not happiness. Nothing wrong with being happy, but if that's the only goal for our kiddos, we will be forming grown-ups who understand seasons of unhappiness as failure and be unprepared for inevitable losses in a mature life of faith. Many outdoor ministry settings happen around woods, so this uses a tree's growth rings in the forest as a metaphor for how each person's stories is embedded in our daily life. Learn More

Consider the moment when you witness bullying, injustice, someone in need or a time to simply be honest about your situation. Resonates with Day 5 of the "Beyond Belief" Inside Out curriculum.
