Threshold of Heaven By Martha Snell Nicholson

Bauman in the Foreword, “will car ry many, many other sufferers to the very ‘Threshold of Heaven.’ ” The poet sings of many themes, and always with a heart at rest in God.

When the author arrived in Bethle hem, the genial and hospitable Brother John’s a d v i c e to him was, “Make friends with some village boy and see Bethlehem for yourself.” The traveler acted upon this counsel. He soon discovered a village shepherd boy who became his guide. Because of his intimate knowledge of his own town, this boy not only led the visitor to the places usually seen by tourists, but ultimately to a village cave home. Herein, the writer discovered what he believes to be the true meaning of those simple words, “laid him in a manger.” Into this quaint, winsome story of the Bethlehem of our day, the writer has put the same depth of feeling and artistry of expression with which his famous “Song of Our Syrian Guest” is replete. 41 pages.
