The “Church in the Wilderness” deeply examines the exodus/pilgrimage of the Israelites in the wilderness and draws specific significant lessons for the contemporary Christian pilgrims. The author’s position is that the contemporary challenges that the people of God go through share a lot of similarities with those who have gone ahead of us, a position that is clearly defended throughout the various chapters of the Book. Elder Emmanuel Anane Boate impresses on his readers the need to stay focused on the final destination and achieve the purpose of their calling despite the challenges of the Christian life. There is only one destination for the people of God who have been called out from their families, communities and nations into a pilgrimage in this world. That is, to be with the Lord in the New Jerusalem. The book forcefully urges all believers not to settle anywhere – despite life challenges, until we crossover to the Promised Land.
