During the cultural upheaval of the late 1960s a young woman began a pilgrimage toward maturity that led through a spiritual wilderness in a physical desert. It began at the University of Minnesota where she met her husband and ended in the mountainous high desert of New Mexico. To mature in such a place requires a certain resilience, an ability to wait for the right elements to coalesce before blossoms emerge. At first, it was no place Margie wanted to be. Joining a commune, becoming a mother, and learning that Christianity offered more beauty and hope than she imagined possible was cold water to a thirsty soul. But change came at the price of honestly facing her own brokenness. No Place is the account of the years of that growth from wandering to a settled faith.
