After 14 years teaching secondary school in Australia, Greg McEnnally needed a break. In particular, he wanted to learn more about the Bible and Bible lands. He was also attracted to one very special Scripture scholar, Fr Carroll Stuhlmueller C.P., who was lecturing at the Catholic Theological Union in Chicago and also leading study tours of these lands. This was ideal-he signed up for six months study in Chicago plus three months based in Israel. This was in 1987. At the end of this year, he spent three years in Papua New Guinea, then ten years in hospital ministry, before deciding to sign up for another sabbatical. In 2000, he spent a further six months studying at CTU, Chicago, followed by a further three months in Israel, but this time based at the Anglican St. George's College, Jerusalem. The rest of his life has been informed by these two marvellous years. This book is an attempt to share those years with others. See less
