Joshua in the Holy Land

I’ve enjoyed the three Joshua books I’ve read. I have learned a lot spiritually. In all three books , Fr. Grazione attributes problems among people of disparate backgrounds to “extremists” on both the political left and right who do not want peace , harmony, etc. Yet the only one he names in the three books I’ve read is “the radical right” and comes very close to stating they ARE the problem. Very disappointing coming from a Roman Catholic priest. This is insulting to many conservatives who are not “radical right” yet are lumped into the group. His attack on the “radical right” undermines his main storyline in most of his books: Love Your Neighbor.

Joshua Series: I love them all the Books and the DVD.Jesus here and now walking around helping people.

I read this book when I was 12, and I think I was too young for this book that point of time. The book was nevertheless interesting with really touching incidents shared inside. It taught me how to be a better person - I took such a long time to finish this book, and it was all worth the while. People should take the time to read it - don't rush it.

This is also a great book by Joseph Girzone. I great story about what would happen when Jesus came backk to earth for meetin g his people. It deserves all thre stars it can get.

This is a wonderful book. It is extremely well written and contains many true to life situations. It exemplifies ways that we could all work together for peace. It visits sites that Jesus was familiar with and walks you through gospel territory. Mr. Girzone knows how to captivate his readers. I would have liked to hear a homily presented by him. A great storyteller.

I read this book by Joseph Girzone immediately after returning from my first trip to Israel. I was reading his first book "Joshua" on the way. And began "Joshua and the Holy Land" on the 12 hour flight back to the USA. 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, especially the reference to the first place Joshua met offically with his group of followers: "Seven Arches Hotel". While on tour in Israel, our first hotel was Seven Arches. The story made the trip stay all the more alive in my mind.I also appreciated the hopeful message that Joseph Girzone leaves with his readers. It is a contageous message that hopefully can spread in real ways to the leaders of our world today.
