- Nature Walking
Photo from Google Earth:
view from Signal Mountain, TNThe first hobby in the TGP Summer 2025 Tuesday / Thursday series is nature walking. It was sent in by one of our team members from Tennessee.
Nature walking is similar to hiking, although it is considered less strenuous. Enjoying the beauty of God’s creation is a huge benefit of a nature walk, with exercise and educational benefits present as well. Most cities have parks or trails that provide opportunities for residents to go on a nature walk without having to travel far.
1. Genesis 3:8 seems to indicate that the Lord God went on late afternoon nature walks with His created children Adam and Eve. Imagine what it must have been like to take a walk with the Creator Himself! It was a sad day indeed when the guilt / shame of their sin caused Adam and Eve to hide from this time of fellowship with the Lord. Pray that Christians throughout the world who routinely take nature walks will always enjoy fellowship with their Father, and keep short accounts with Him in regards to sin.
2. People who do not know God seek peace in a variety of ways, including being out in nature. Pray for an unsaved individual in your state who will be taking a nature walk today to be struck anew with the sense of the Lord’s eternal power and godhead that nature provides (Rom. 1), and respond in faith to any gospel invitation previously received.
3. Thank God that although this world is greatly damaged by the Fall, there is still so much beauty in our Father’s world that draws our hearts to Him.
Psalm 95:1-7
- Thank You
Each morning part of the opening exercises for our school classroom includes reading a couple poems. Last week one of the selections from the current book we are reading reminded me of TGP’s faithful prayer partners. I do not know who wrote the poem, but wanted to share it with you all, in the hopes that it will be an encouragement. Thank you for each prayer you pray on behalf of both Christians and the lost around the world! May Jesus be known / loved more and more because of this ministry.

This post was originally published March 25, 2021, in the first week of TGP’s ministry. - Series Intro: Hobbies
TGP is excited to begin a new series featuring a wide variety of hobbies. The Lord willing, during the summer of 2025, Tuesday and Thursday posts will highlight a particular hobby and three related prayer requests.
TGP often features prayer requests that correspond to current world crises, and that is important without a doubt. It is also important to pray for people not currently in a major life crisis, and this hobby series is one way to do that. God gives us richly all things to enjoy, and a healthy fringe benefit of being made in His image is that people enjoy creating things in one way or another.
Every TGP member is invited to respond to this email/text with what your favorite hobby (ies) are, so that those interests can be included in the series.
Thank you for participating and praying!
