Synopsis

Prologue by Lawrence Boadt Reflections and Drawings The Holy Land is a treasured unity of body and soul, a place where the life of grace is grounded in the reality of the everyday physical world. Inspired by the artist's visit and by the author's sabbatical there, this is a meditation on the Holy Land as presented through word and image. The black-and-white drawings illustrate both biblical locations and contemporary life in the Middle East, while the scripture-based reflections provide inspiration for contemplation. With spare poetic text and evocative drawings, Holy Land - - includes such traditional sites as Jerusalem, the Basilica at Nazareth, the church at Bethlehem, the Jordan, the Damascus Gate, the Sea of Galilee, Calvary, the Holy Sepulchre, and more - helps readers made the transition from tourist to pilgrim - includes ample white space for personal thoughts, becoming a meditative diary on the Holy Land
