#8 Brand Name Christianity - (Section 1) - The North Face



A Younglifer is naturally drawn to mountainous areas. Any nature area that has pine or spruce trees, mountains, valleys, creeks and cliffs will act like Brett Rodgers to a Jack Johnson song. So naturally a Younglifer would need the right equipment and clothing to explore and enjoy these beautiful places. Luckily The North Face has produced a line of clothing and packs that allow for Younglifers to enjoy all the greatness of God's outdoor creation.

Younglifers who wear North face are the kind of Younglifers who like to sit in a mountain wedged Lodge with hot chocolate and smores. They like words like "cozy" and "star watching". They wear a North face fleece jacket with jeans and either chacos or hiking boots. New Balance running shoes are also acceptable in this situation. Sometimes they will have a smaller North face Day-pack with them at all times.

These Younglifers love Starbucks and the movie "Into the Wild". One of there favorite things to do is to peak a 14er in a day and then hit the cabin for a quick quiet time in there Moleskine while drinking milk filled coffee and eating GORP ("Trail Mix" to the non-Younglifer). Personalized coffee mugs are their favorite and they always enjoy a good back rub. So, if you ever see a Younglifer with a North Face on, offer them a bag or GORP and a back rub and you are automatically "in".

Note: These types of Younglifers hate the word "patagonia" for it brings tension to their lives. So, under no circumstances are you to say or wear anything that resembles the word "patagonia". This rule applies as does the rule in Harry Potter to the "One who shall not be named!"

Note: Try to find a unique color or type of North Face when around other Younglifers, this will tell them, "Yeah, I searched around on Craig's List and eBay to find just what I wanted at a good price." Auto in!

Note: The Image at the top of this entry is a true Younglifers ever endearing image of what heaven will and does look like.
