Learning of the life and times of JesusBy sharon stashukI found it quite Interesting to follow this author's descriptions as he walked the paths that Jesus and his disciples walked. I did notice that many of the biblical places have changed a lot compared to when Jesus walked them as described in the bible. I wonder if I would be disappointed to see Jerusalem and the other places that is so different to how I see them visualized by the scriptures. I like the times and places as I picture them from the bible.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. excellent preparation for Holy Land TripBy CustomerOf the books I rounded up to get me ready for traveling to Israel; this one was by far the best fit for my expectations. I loved Wayne Stiles' style of writing. It was like a journal with amusing commentary mixed with historical background and important details. But the most valuable part was the way he wove in the scripture pertinent to the locations and its implications. I found myself deeply moved by the provocative teaching that makes each location spiritually significant. My appetite was whetted for the journey to the Holy Land; from which I have just returned. I now plan to REREAD the book for even more information and inspiration.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Great BookBy James M GreeneI had the opportunity of taking a group to the holy land and found out about Walking in the Footsteps of Jesus and purchased a copy to help prepare for the trip. I was so impressed with the book that I ordered one for each person accompanying me on the trip.A great book for devotional use and also for information and a great asset during the trip.
