Follow Heinrich in his life's journey and you will discover the liberating power of faith.Review"Historical fiction at its best! Rich with period detail and brimming with adventure, Baker's novel brings to vibrant life the perilous story of the Children's Crusade. The courageous acts of Pieter the priest and his young band of crusaders forced me to examine my own heart. Could I withstand so much for my faith? Could I be so brave? A powerful tale, wonderfully told." Liz Curtis Higgs, bestselling author of Thorn in my Heart."Sometimes one can 'live' a book. I lived this one. More important than the power of this story is the power of its impact on my own thinking about redemptive suffering. If you're tired of the shallow, the banal and the boring--this is your book." Dr. Steve Brown, author, teacher.From the AuthorThis was an emotionally charged book to write. A father of two sons, myself, I found the main character's quest to be very personal. I hope you will appreciate the deep valleys and high mountains that our friend, Heinrich, faces. A research trip to northern Germany added a great deal of flavor to my research that I hope you will enjoy.
