Lawrence, who challenges nine college students to take a leap of faith on the path to holiness.As his friends set out for England, Ireland, and New York City, Austin heads for a remote monastery where he meets Fr. Aelred, a Benedictine hermit who guides him on the spiritual quest. Through a fictional dialogue, author Fr.

In our challenging times, you will be inspired to become a vagabond warrior on your own wilderness journey to the Promised Land.
