Training for Eternity

There is a guy's backpacking trip coming up (see below for more info). That got me thinking over previous trips and some of the extra weight guys carried, which made a steep trail even harder. In our walk with the Spirit as those devoted to God, Hebrews 12:1-14 applies an analogy from running (or hiking), which poses some questions for us. In pursuing sanctification, what are you carrying that slows you down? What sin are you allowing to trip you up? How might you be resisting your Father's training?
