BYU Jerusalem Center Blog

Last week there was a flurry of attention as the BYU newspaper and several bloggers wrote about A View of Jerusalem.  The coverage continues as LDS author Tristi Pinkston heaps praise on the book.  She calls the book “timeless” and shares a portion of her favorite vinette - Treading the Winepress.  She goes on to write:

This beautiful segment, which took a simple act of everyday life and illustrated a point in the Savior’s ministry, really touched my heart. The Savior did something incredibly hard, He did it all alone, and He did it out of love for us.

Many other chapters struck me, and I found this book particularly meaningful to me in the Christmas season, although the message is timeless and should be read at any time of year. A wonderful gift for parents, grandparents, or any who want to gain a clearer picture of Christ’s daily walk on earth, I recommend this book highly.

Thanks Tristi.  You can read her full review at Tristi’s Takes.
