In a book that resembles a road report, born out of the need to put into words the life-giving experiences that the encounter with the early church gave, Peter Halldorf writes in the preface:
" This book is dedicated to those who have been my faithful readers for many years. In book after book I have returned to what has become my life's quest. The longing for height and holiness. I have taken my readers on a journey that led far into deserts and deep into history. Some who followed have testified to an experience of homecoming and belonging similar to mine. A faith with a wider horizon."
