This book has to deal with how a man ties hunting into the bible and many interesting hunting stories. His life as a writer, songwriter, pastor, and father all play into the book. This book is my all time favorite book I have read it 3 times now.

I read this book during my senior year. I love archery hunting, and it helped me tremendously throughout high school. For those people that do not archery hunt, it consists of a large amount of time for a person to think within a beautiful context.
Steve Chapman beautifully explains the intricate wonders of archery hunting in relation to life, morals, and hope.

Chapman's reflections hit home for me, as I could personally relate to each of the short reflections in relation to my archery hunting experiences.

In a world where people often yearn for speed, right now, and me-me; Chapman offers reflections to enjoy the beauty of nature, whitetail deer, and ourselves.

To encounter God in a tree stand, should be the pinnacle moment and experience of all archery hunters.
