Pillars of the Earth


One of the best books I've read so far this year, in my quest to read more fiction, is "Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett. The book was recommended to me by my dear friends Jackson and Katie Henry. Jackson used an excerpt of the book in a worship service he designed for Lake Junaluska around the theme of silence. I remember worshipping in the service and being very struck by the reading.
The book has been called Follett's masterpiece and I believe it! The work centers around the building of a cathedral in medieval England. The cathedral itself is one of the main characters. Sadly, I've got to run to a meeting but I wholeheartedly recommend the book: it is AMAZING!
Hope you have a great day!
