Because God's voice is so full of authority and goodwill, it never needs to be loud or hysterical.

Hans Peter Royer

Hans Peter Royer (1962–2013) war ein österreichischer Bergführer, Buchautor, Prediger und langjähriger Leiter des Bibel- und Freizeitzentrums Tauernhof in Schladming. Er prägte die christuszentrierte Erlebnispädagogik, die sportliche Grenzerfahrungen mit Glaubensvermittlung verband, und setzte sich für eine von religiösem Leistungsdruck befreite Nachfolge Jesu ein. Für heutige Bibelleser veranschaulichen seine Texte theologische Grundthemen wie Gnade, Hingabe und Gottvertrauen durch einprägsame Bilder aus dem Bergsport.
