Story Behind The Book
The seven people you will meet in the Wilderness.
This book consists of seven vignettes describing the lives of seven characters. Each character will teach you lessons you will need in order to survive the Wilderness experiences of your life. They are the evil talebearer, the radical nonconformist, the juvenile delinquent, the overwhelmed pastor, the unwilling immigrant, the lone ranger, and the silent partner. Why will you meet them in that order? They are ranked from the least helpful to the most helpful to you in handling your Wilderness experience. Each one will post his résumé, describe his life, and share his epitaph. They will each issue the same invitation: “follow me.”

A new way to find understanding in some of the most basic tenets in our Christian walk. I enjoy Moore's work, and I will definitely keep seeking him out. 5-stars for a very talented writer with a rare perspective.</div></div><div class="clearboth txtsmall gt9" style="font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;clear:both;padding-top:9px;font-size:12px;line-height:16px;">-Ellen C.
