Review Quotes:
"Ron Nikkel charts a spiritual journey that engages the heart as well as the mind. Nothing could be more relevant to the current spiritual search than seeing life as a journey and along the way Ron unearths hidden treasures from classical writers and personal experiences, giving us a wonderful insight into his own struggles and joys. He does this with fresh insight into familiar biblical images which nourish both the emotions and the intellect. Your Journey with Jesus will involve the whole person, mind, heart, and soul."
