About this listen
In this book, Aaron Simmons takes us on a trip to the mountains to reflect on the meaning of life. In a world too often defined by a quest for “success” that leaves us empty, alone, and anxious, Simmons seeks “faithfulness“ outdoors with thinkers and artists from Aristotle to Kierkegaard, Sartre to Anne Lamott, and Kendrick Lamar to Donovan Woods. Simmons invites us to rethink what it means to make choices, take risks, be alone and silent while cultivating friendships, and to find our calling by facing our vulnerability. In the end, Simmons shows that faithfulness is more than a religious concept. It is about living a life of risk with direction.

My Own Revelations Confirmed
Going into this book I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. I figured it would be lots of philosophic references and names that would have me bored. But I was very wrong. Not only was it comfortable to read and listen to, I felt a sense of confirmation from the ideas within.
Since Covid I have been on a quest to get to know our earth’s resources as well as my own talents for using those.
Since I was a little girl, I have camped and enjoyed the outdoors. I’d say I was a bit of a tomboy. I still truly enjoy the outdoors. Something I have continued with my children through Boy Scouts and simply helping them experience the pride one feels in creating structures, fire, and growing food.
There is something palpable about being able to exist in this world without the assistance of technology or fancy gadgets.
I found this book inspiring and forward thinking. Definitely an amazing book to read or listen to!

The authors goal of proselytizing.
This is the first time since subscribing to audiobooks that I could not finish a book. The author has smuggled his religious beliefs into an interesting combination of outdoor activities and historical philosophers. I found some points made as pretentious and other points simple minded pablum. I could not stomach either.
