The Pilgrim Path

The Sacred Journey explores the principals found in the "Beatitudes" which Jesus preached in the "Sermon on the Mount." It is an examination of what those principals teach us about being pilgrim followers of Jesus; the Master of Mercy. The book seeks to answer one primary question, "How do I daily engage a sacred God in routine life in an often counterfiet world?"

*Sacred Journey will be available in E-Book & Print 2010
