Book Synopsis

Pilgrim's Progress is a handy meditation book that takes actual and armchair travelers through the Holy Land, moving from Tel Aviv, northward along the coast, inland through Galilee, back to the southern area and finally going up to Jerusalem.

Each two-page devotional contains scripture references; a lyrical meditation on the locale, combining biblical, historical, and contemporary observations -- be it ancient Joppa or modern Jerusalem; and a prayer.
