What if the truth you hold today is just the beginning of a greater story? In The Eternal Climb: How Christ’s Church Leads to More – A Journey to Truth, author Bruce Goldwell invites readers to explore a spiritual ascent—a winding path up a mountain toward eternal truth, guided by the church Christ Himself established. Available now on Amazon, this book blends scripture, personal stories, and a global vision of faith, making it a must-read for spiritual seekers, Christians curious about Mormonism, and members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) alike.
A Mountain of Truth
Picture a mountain, its peak shrouded in mist, promising a view that ties every fragment of faith into one breathtaking whole. Goldwell uses this metaphor to frame a journey that begins at the base—where Christ built His church with apostles, prophets, and revelation (Ephesians 2:20)—and winds past benches of tradition like Catholicism, Orthodoxy, and Protestantism. These benches offer glimmers of truth, but as Goldwell argues, they stop short of the fullness Christ intended. The path leads to a restoration through The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, not as the end, but as the clearest trail upward, open to more truth as God reveals it (John 16:13).
This isn’t about having all the answers now; it’s about staying open to climb higher. Goldwell writes, “The summit isn’t a finish line; it’s a promise—a call to keep climbing, to draw closer to Him than ever before.” Whether you’re questioning your faith, seeking deeper connection, or sharing the gospel, The Eternal Climb offers a map drawn from scripture and experience.
A Personal Journey
Goldwell’s narrative is deeply personal, forged in the crucible of a decade spent homeless on the sun-scorched streets of Venice, California. There, amid hardship, he shared hope with seekers—a girl grieving her father, a mother mourning her son over a long-distance call. “Truth is truth—it doesn’t need my label; it calls to those who seek it,” he reflects. These encounters, paired with his unshaken faith in Christ’s guiding light, infuse the book with authenticity and warmth. From his own winding path, Goldwell invites readers to ask: What’s stirring in your heart? Are you ready to take a step?
What You’ll Find Inside
Across six chapters, The Eternal Climb traces the trail of Christ’s church:
- Chapter 1: The Quest for Truth – Challenges readers to climb beyond comfortable benches, asking, “What if there’s more?”
- Chapter 2: The Early Christian Church – Explores the New Testament blueprint—apostles, prophets, priesthood keys—and why it matters.
- Chapter 3: The Rise of Major Christian Denominations – Examines how Catholicism, Orthodoxy, and Protestantism reflect pieces of truth but miss the whole.
- Chapter 4: The Restoration – Introduces Joseph Smith’s First Vision and the restored gospel through the LDS Church.
- Chapter 5: Matching Scripture to Christ’s Church – Tests the LDS path against scripture, showing a church that keeps climbing.
- Chapter 6: The Invitation – Calls readers to join the eternal quest, with a global vision of Christ’s church.
The book also includes “Notes for Your Climb” for personal reflection and “Suggested Reading” to deepen your journey—scriptures, the Book of Mormon, and Christian classics like C.S. Lewis’s Mere Christianity.

Goldwell’s vision aligns with Christ’s command to “make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19).
