Chasing the Divine in the Holy Land

History & Biography

“I can think of only two reasons to buy this book:1. You are not going to the Holy Land.2. You are going to the Holy Land. In these pages Ruth Everhart writes eloquently about her trip into the dust and beauty of Christianity's cradle -- about her wrestling with her beliefs, her faith, and her past. If all pilgrims were as curious, insightful, introspective, firm, and openhearted as Ruth Everhart, our old world would roll more happily and safely through the universe. In her story you'll find bloodshed, humor, and -- most importantly -- love.”
