Heathen And Holy Lands

When Ruth Everhart was given the opportunity to travel to the Holy Land as one of several ministers taking part in a documentary about pilgrimage, she jumped at the opportunity. Little did she know just how demanding -- yet ultimately rewarding -- her transformation from Presbyterian minister, wife, and mom to pilgrim would be. Candid, down-to-earth, and delightful, Ruth recounts her experiences in Chasing the Divine in the Holy Land, inviting readers to journey alongside her on an unforgettable Holy Land pilgrimage.

"An Enquiry into the Obligations of Christians to Use Means for the Conversion of the Heathens" by William Carey became an important piece of religious literature for Protestant missionaries who aimed to teach their faith and convert people in colonized countries across the globe. Though the book itself would likely be considered insensitive and perhaps even radical today, it is nonetheless important to read about these uncomfortable parts of history in order to avoid repeating them.
