Harbors of Heaven: Bethlehem and the Places We Love
We often take for granted the places where we live, love, or work. We forget that the ground on which we walk is sacred. [Jeffrey Johnson] has written a thoughtful, creative, and energizing book that enables us to appreciate the various places in our lives and to savor Bethlehem as a place we love in our hearts. (Spirituality and Practice)Whether writing about the manger, the stable, Bethlehem, Mary, Jerusalem or the meaningful locations in his life, Johnson encourages us to renew our connection to the holy ground in our tradition and in our communities. (The Lutheran)The theme of belonging pervades the pages of this book. For this reader, who has hardly lived in one place longer than three or four years, it invites an introspective look at the longings in my heart for one place to call home.
