Book Description

Sometimes the Christian journey is a stroll along quiet shores. Other times it is an uphill climb on narrow, snow-covered mountain paths. Usually, it is simply walking in the direction of wholeness, one step after another, sometimes even two steps forward and one step back.
Learning what we believe about God and what God expects from us is an ongoing journey. In A Five-Mile Walk, Michael B. Brown considers paths our journey takes, exploring our attitudes, emotions, expectations, community, and faithfulness. Though these are not the only paths we travel on our Christian journey, they are indispensable if we are serious about living faithfully as followers of Jesus.

About the Author

Michael B. Brown is Senior Minister of Marble Collegiate Church in New York City (where Dr. Norman Vincent Peale served as Senior Minister for 52 years). He is a native of Asheboro, North Carolina, and graduated from High Point University, Duke University Divinity School, and Drew Theological Seminary, where he received his Doctorate of Ministry in Preaching. Dr. Brown is a frequent lecturer, preacher, and motivational speaker. He and his wife, Page Plummer Brown, are the proud parents of Adam, Alison, Zachary, and Katharine.

Book Reviews

This is a wonderfully warm and wise guide for any Christian seeking to live our faith more fully. Michael Brown highlights the words of the Bible with practical suggestions and insightful questions about Christian living both individually and in community. No reader will be disappointed by these pages. I warmly recommend that you take them in hand and see for yourself how your journey might be more meaningful.

—Carol M. Perry, SU
Resident Bible Scholar
Marble Collegiate Church

In this road map to modern Christianity, Michael Brown offers an invaluable resource for individuals and communities living with the conviction that an ancient faith can and must be vibrant and transformational today. Be prepared to be changed and challenged by this excellent book.

—Rev. Dr. Amy Butler
