It’s one of the greatest challenges on Earth; an ascent to the top of the world on the slopes of Mount Everest. Eric Alexander experienced grave and a faith-empowering journey he will never forget as part of a record-setting team in May 2001, scaling the heights of Everest with his friend, blind climber Erik Weinhenmayer.

Eric has learned much about faith, trust, prayer, depending on God, as well as perseverance during these climbs. A member of a rare and adventurous group of achievers, he has been instrumental in helping others, often with physical or mental disabilities, to achieve their own dreams as well.

Having conquered challenges most will never experience, including a 150-foot fall in the Himalayas during training, Eric’s faith guided him during his recovery, the tragic loss of a friend in the backcountry of Colorado, as well as his preparation for the 2001 Everest expedition.

Being a follower of Christ is hard. The summit is hard. Where is your summit and what is your plan to conquer it? Be inspired and motivated by Eric’s insight, not simply to survive but to thrive every day in God’s grace.
