Chasing Francis by Ian Morgan Cron

I decided to start a book blog where I can review just some of the books I read. I got the idea when I reviewed Ian Morgan Cron's book, Chasing Francis: A Pilgrim's Tale, for my blog Finding Fruit.


Here is an excerpt from what I wrote over there.
Here's the thing about "Chasing Francis: A Pilgrim's Tale," it is a spiritual pilgrimage for the reader dressed up in the fictional story of Chase Falson, a pastor amidst a crisis of faith, and I liked that. I enjoyed having a story to enter into while learning so much about Francis of Assisi; his life, his teachings, and his impact on the Christianity. I kept wishing I had a highlighter or pencil with me so I could take notes in the margins but I was too caught up in the story of Chase Falson and the merry band of priests and players he meets on his journey to stop and go get one.
