Details: Review

“Andre Moubarak takes us for a walk down the Via Dolorosa that opens our eyesto the sufferings of Jesus and the history of Jerusalem. He also givesus great insight into the life and sufferings of our Palestinianbrothers and sisters in Christ. Hated and persecuted by both Jews andMuslims, they find themselves forgotten by Evangelical Christians in the West. This work is chocked full of helpful historical and culturalinformation that enables us to understand Jesus’ experience better. Itis enjoyable reading, with vivid descriptions that enable us tovisualize the experience of walking through the fourteen stations of the Via Dolorosa. I recommend Andre’s book to anyone planning to visitJerusalem and wanting to understand the significance of the experiencebetter. It is also an excellent resource for those who cannot go, butwant to understand it today.”

“Andre has made a tremendous impact on our church.His story of growing up on the streets of Jerusalem is powerful, life changing,and one you won’t want to miss.”
–Brandon Beals, Pastor, Canyon Creek Church, Seattle, the UnitedStates

“After ten trips to Israel, I’ve tried many tour guides; Andre is the best, both in teaching and in professional guiding services. As a pastor who specializes in teaching the Bible, I consider Andre my pastor, guide, and instant-answer-man for helping me understand Israel. I am so glad he has put his experience with the Lord in writing. I trust that this book will help many who have walked the Via Dolorosa continue their own journey to the cross with Christ. And if you have never been to Israel, please make this journey to the Holy Land a priority in life.

“This is a powerful literary work that reveals the times, the country, and the people of the Holy Land, both historically and today. Andre lends personal insights and a wealth of knowledge and revelation about Israel and about Christ. One Friday in Jerusalem takes you to the ancient streets those of us in Andre’s tour groups have walked as, led by him, we have encountered the reality and magnitude of the Via Dolarosa.
— BISHOP RAYMOND W JOHNSON, Living Faith Christian Center, Baton Rouge, Louisiana”

“One Friday in Jerusalem is the most refreshing glimpse I have ever had into a Palestinian Maronite Christian’s deep personal experiences and spiritual insights. Having lived in Jerusalem, I appreciate Andre’s accurate and vivid descriptions of the Via Dolorosa, and I was riveted to the book as I walked each step, gleaning valuable insights. Andre neither defends nor undermines the traditional stations of the cross; rather, he shares an insider’s spiritual pilgrimage. His knowledge of history and its importance in understanding Jerusalem’s modern conflicts makes this book a must-read.
