A Silk Road Pilgrimage: Discovering the Church of the East

The silk road is a loose network of trade routes from China to Bulgaria. In 2007, Richard and Jewel Showalter traveled this ancient highway and visited with missionaries, church leaders, pastors, and ordinary people of the Church of the East, an expression of Christianity little known to the West. In this book they share glimpses of their journey across Asia and invite readers to explore the historical landscape that was, in their words, endlessly thrilling, sobering, and beckoning.
