Wilderness The character of the American people and indeed of the biblical story would not be the same without wilderness. From Moses to Daniel Boone, biblical and American pioneers alike were shaped and tested by their experiences in wild nature. We cherish this heritage and its rich blessings, whether as a shaper of identity or as a source of beauty, recreation, refinement, and inspiration. At the same time, we must take action to preserve that heritage for future generations. Faith Resources Fortunately, many avenues exist for Christians to demonstrate our faith in action and honor our biblical and national wilderness legacy.
