Whatever you’re looking for today, there’s a trail for you near Sacramento.

Near California’s capital city, numerous trails access the Central Valley’s wildlife-filled wetlands and traverse riverside forests and grasslands. In the Coast Range and Sierra foothills, trails lead to scenic waterfalls, wildflower-studded meadows, and high mountain lakes. Longtime Sacramento resident and intrepid hiker Steven L. Evans has selected the 43 must-do hikes, the majority of which are within two hours of the city. Whether you’re looking for a scenic stroll, a full-day adventure, or even a spectacular alpine peak-bagging trip, you’ll find it here. Trails range from 1 to 10 miles and from sea level to 9,000 feet, and each trip includes elevation profiles, detailed maps, driving directions, and trail milestones.

Living according to biblical principles has become more important than ever, and their truths must be sewn into the very fabric of the soul.In this book, author Steve Evans highlights six timeless truths that will serve a bedrock of faith when adversities loom. The message he shares will help the church avoid trivial arguments, navigate difficult seasons, and stay true to mission as it seeks to fulfill God’s will, and the principles within serve as the foundation for ministry to move forward in any seasons.Rather than teaching how to hedge against obstacles the church may face and opposition that may hinder the church from moving forward, this book encourages the church to take a faith-filled stance in the promises of God and move forward regardless of the obstacles.The author points to proven principles that have helped God’s people prevail in the midst of trying circumstances and guides Christians and church leaders to apply these principles in their lives. God is with us on the rainy days—and the sunny ones as well. It’s time to trust in the Lord.
