The Cross Rhythms Ben Nevis Challenge

Vineyard Records UK (primary Business Sponsor)

Well we've done it! We have climbed the Mountain of Heaven, Ben Nevis, the highest peak in Great Britain. 22 of us have delivered all we were called to do in the physical and the spiritual.

We've got the aches and pains to prove it but every one of us knows we were a part of a very special weekend in many many ways. The kind of weekend that sows for the future, in our own lives personally and for the nation. The 5 hour broadcast, hosted by Mike Rimmer, was a fantastic event, which you can relive by listening again to the entire show! But don't worry, we've split it down into 5 manageable chunks. It was packed with interviews from visionaries across the nation, and spiritual moments to leave you inspired, culminating with the live and prophetic broadcast from a very wet, cold and windy mountain peak.

From Cross Rhythms, a huge thank you to everyone who has supported and valued us, by sponsoring our challenge. You may not realise it but your decision to invest into Cross Rhythms has actually been an investment into the nation and I believe it's fruitfulness is 30, 60 or 100 times more than you would expect from the original faithful donation. (Anyone who hasn’t yet sponsored us but would like to can still do so on our donations, page). It's worth going there just to see peoples lovely comments!

I believe we are entering into a new season spiritually in our nation. And for many Christian disciples who have travailled, a time of acceleration, a time of double portion inheritance in the land (See Isaiah 61) is emerging. Look out for signs of this coming.

'We came, we saw and we conquered' the mountain of heaven. How poetic!
