WALK THE LAND : A Journey on Foot through Israel
"I wholeheartedly recommend this book for its glimpses of the people, history, and beauty of the land, and for the author's spiritual insights."
~ Jeremiah Greenberg, The Messianic Times, Jan/Feb 2008
"Pex describes her country from the ground up. ... Add this one to your library and your ministry book tables."
~ Theresa Newell, DMin, CMJ USA Board Chairman, for the LCJE Bulletin
"I found this book a delightful and exciting story, and unusually spiritually penetrating. Judy Pex shows us the 'reach' of God in her life as we travel with her and her husband, John, through 'the land.' All of us have a hunger to know the Lord in the deep places of our lives, and Judy manages to tell us how that works as she weaves her trail experiences in and out of her own life story of Jesus and His love. It is an original, gripping thing to travel with her and learn lessons of spiritual history and of how we can deepen our interior life."
"For thirty years I have had the incredible experience of traveling the land given to Israel by God -- from Dan to Beersheba to Eilat. However, 'walking the land' with my friends Judy and John (by reading this book) has brought a whole new dimension and depth to my understanding of Israel and its people. I know you'll be enriched spiritually through Judy's story of the insights given her by her God on this journey of a lifetime."
~ Kay Arthur, Precept Ministries International
"I encourage you to read this book because I believe your interest in people, Israel and God will be nurtured in an enjoyable and educational way."
~ Wayne Weissman, director, Ravencrest Chalet - Member of Torchbearers Int'l
"Walk the Land draws you into the experience of walking the Israel National Trail and through this catalyst brings you shoulder to shoulder with John and Judy Pex and their Lord and Saviour 'the Nazarene.'"
~ Steve Roth, Walking/ Jeep Tour Guide and Shepherd, Upper Galilee
"Reads like an adventure story. ... Along the trail are timely insertions of information about the land and peoples of Israel given in palatable proportions, enough to gain a better understanding, a fuller picture."
~ Jonathan Goldberg, field leader, OM Israel
"Judy Pex is a verbal camera. She describes in such exquisite detail the vast Israeli wilderness as well as the noisy Israeli cities and towns that you feel both the concerns and the delights of such a remarkable trip. But much more, she communicates her deep love for both the land and the people, a love that accepts both the difficulties of the trail and the various and colorful individuals she and John encounter as they cross Israel from bottom to top."
~ Sam Nadler, President, Word of Messiah Ministries
"What fun to read about the places we have visited. ... An enjoyable, easy way to learn about the land, culture, people and language in small, interesting bites."
~ Darline Irwin, Israel tour group leader
"I absolutely love it. I feel like I'm walking the trail with Judy and John. Who would've thought a book about a hike would be so riveting!"
~ Shirley Silver, customer
"WOW ... awesome work! ... Kit and I used to do much hiking but because of my back had stopped. This book encouraged us on and so we did a long hike up the coast and were better (although sore) for it."
~ Dennis Ellingson, author
"I could relate to the author so much and I was fascinated with the descriptions of the different parts of Israel. It made me want to get out and take a hike! ... I think I might buy a copy for my sister and brother in law in Colorado. They remind me so much of [the Pexes]."
