Synopsis

Become an intrepid pilgrim on an adventure of faith as you walk five biblical roads that have played such an influential role in our spiritual history. These ancient paths, their stones full of biblical memories, evoke the travels of our ancestors in the faith and Jesus himself: key Scriptures become a guidebook for an unforgettable journey. But also listen to contemporary voices: a wide range of short interviews immerses the reader in present-day realities.

As readers tread these roads through mountain, valley, desert, coastland, and city, they will realize their potential to challenge and transform their perceptions—even the very course of their faith. They may never be the same again as they follow in the footsteps of Abraham, Jesus, and courageous pilgrims and hear the cries of today’s residents. Roads are about enabling movement. This odyssey of the soul will help readers along in their faith journey, open up new vistas and perspectives, and stimulate a movement in the soul as insights are gained and challenges embraced.
