NCLA Review - Aimed toward people with busy urban lifestyles, Soul and the City could easily be adapted to a variety of situations. Divided into 12 chapters, this book would be excellent for adult group study and discussion. Chapter topics begin with “Finding God in . . .” followed by a specific topic (the City, Crowds, Noise, Haste, and so on). Chapter subtitles convey the focus of conversation even further within each. Concluding each chapter are “Cures for Soulsickness in the City” with “Stop, Yield and Go” suggestions. Ms. Heidish uses quotes from a variety of sources including the Bible and her personal experiences.
