Places Along the Way: Meditations on the Journey of Faith invites the reader to enter into a pilgrimage of the heart through image and word. The evocative photographs of the land we call holy are an anchor for meditation, a visual resting place along the journey. Each of the forty-seven meditations can be used as part of a Lenten pilgrimage or as a guide for prayer and reflection throughout the year.

known author Martin Marty and award winning photographer Micah Marty combine their talents to produce a book of meditations that draws the reader in and encourages deep spiritual reflection. Each of the 47 meditations can be used as part of a Lenten pilgrimage or for reflection throughout the year.

This Marty father-and-son act is a don't-miss. The senior Marty, who has been challenging readers for years with concise commentary on religion and society, turns reflective in a book specifically structured for Lent. The theme is pilgrimage-physical and spiritual-and the 47 meditations (one for each day of Lent plus each of the season's Sundays) usher one from chaos/ creation to Galilee/resurrection. Son Micah's photographic artistry enhances the journey with pictures of these ``places along the way.'' Handsomely produced on high-gloss paper, Places is a charming and appropriate gift for oneself, a friend or a parish library. Illustrations.
