Description

The Mountain Beyond begins in a small town in America and unfolds on a remote mountain in Kenya — nearly 8,000 miles away — where water is scarce, and life is hard. Called to enter a world far away from her own, a courageous woman journeys into the heart of the Great Rift Valley, where she encounters an untouched people long forgotten by the outside world. She risks everything and faces unexpected danger to bring them hope through the living water. With the support of two Southern churches, she helps transform the life of the Pokot tribe on this scorched volcanic slope. Set against the sweeping beauty of this corner of Africa and under the sapphire sky, this true story is an honest account of faith, hope, and love. It is about crossing a continental divide, the boundaries of different cultures, beliefs, a life of comfort, and a calling that demands more. Through vivid storytelling, over 200 original photographs, and 60 interactive QR codes linking to real footage of key moments, this book transports readers beyond the pages and into the heart of the living story itself. For readers who love true stories of faith, global missions, and life-changing journeys, this story will stay with you long after the book ends.
