Sometimes people wonder why they feel stuck in life, as if they are living out their days in an unnatural and often hostile environment. But the truth is, this is a reality for people attempting to follow Jesus in our world.We are displaced persons.But God is at work in displacement. And it’s in this environment – in the alleys of life – where extraordinary growth takes place and our faith grows the most. This book is about a journey of understanding how we are to navigate a life of faith amid a world of such uncertainty, and oftentimes, of great darkness.
Pilgrims of the Alley proves to be a book that everyone should add to their reading list! Dave Arnold draws from his experience as a pastor, worship leader, church planter, world relief refugee and child of God to draw the reader into a better understanding of how no matter what social class or situation a person finds themselves in, each of us is useful for the Kingdom. It's amazing how both refreshing and challenging this book is.
The author does an incredible job drawing from scripture, people he's encountered, stories to draw the reader into the narrative that we are sojourners in a foreign land. I guarantee this book will allow you to make advancements in your understanding of God's loving pursuit.

This is a beautiful and thought provoking book by a minister who works with immigrants and refugees. It contrasts those who live on the edges of life in our present time to many biblical events in a thought provoking manner.
