Publisher's Description

Jesus, the rabbi of Nazareth, was always on the move. Therefore, shadowing him, following in his footsteps, amounts to being engaged in a continual process of becoming, of reinventing oneself, of being born anew every day. This nomadic lifestyle, which fosters simplification and improvisation, is paradoxically also very enriching--to the point of transforming us into pilgrims on the way to the messianic age.

“By celebrating Jesus as the Nomad of Nazareth, Sr. Christianne Meroz uses travel to connect him to the ancient Hebrews, the immigrants and refugees of today, and our own spiritual journeys. With her keen psychological insight, she shows how travel can be both 'physical migration and inner transformation,' and can save us from a religion too narrowly defined.”

Lawrence N. Crumb

“Jesus of Nazareth: Always on the Move is another in a series of small but challenging books for a small group conversation or a personal journey. As Meroz takes us along with Jesus' journey, we can examine our own journeys and challenge each other to examine our own journeys. This is a great tool for helping parishioners see faith working in their lives.”
