I just finished "Joshua in the Holy Land", by Joseph Girzone.
What I really enjoyed about the story was the reality that was presented in the characters that encountered Joshua. I also appreciated greatly the accurate portrayal of the places that were involved in the story.
I also appreciated the hopeful message that Joseph Girzone leaves with his readers. It is a contagious message that hopefully can spread in real ways to the leaders of our world today.
If you are a born-again Christian, you may struggle with some of the "sermons" given by Joshua in this book. It will really get you thinking.
Speaking to a group of Jews, Arabs, and Christians, he tells them that they all have the same heavenly Father and that they will share the same eternal reward because of their faith in the Father. While Christians and Jews do share the same Father God, from what I've studied of the Muslim faith, the attributes of Allah are not the same as our God of the Christian faith. Nonetheless, it is a good read.
It exemplifies ways that we could all work together for peace.
I highly recommend the entire Joshua series.
The Author, Joseph Girzone is a Catholic priest who had to retire for health reasons.

Many booksellers have it secondhand, which I did not discover until after I had purchased quite a few of them..

Father Joseph Francis Girzone loved his work as a priest. He loved working with people in their parishes, schools, and communities, and he loved working with people from other religions as well. So when his doctor advised that he retire from the daily work of a parish priest due to health reasons, Joseph found a new way to continue reaching out to people from different backgrounds: he became a writer and a speaker.

This is neither here nor there, but I think still on-topic, you know I'm gonna get one book today and read it.

But I have to share this first, funny thing, i may not have told you this, My father's father always dreamed of having a priest in the family. When I heard this, my grandfather was looking into my eyes some 26 years ago.

To this day, I still think I may have made a fine priest. For I do love life, and all those that choose to live it.
