About the Author

Hannah Hurnard (1905-1990) is a twentieth century Christian author, best known for her allegory Hinds' Feet on High Places. Hurnard was born in 1905 in Colchester, England to Quaker parents. She graduated from Ridgelands Bible College of Great Britain in 1926. In 1932 she became an independent missionary, moving to Haifa, Israel. Her work in Israel lasted 50 years, although she would later maintain a home in England as well. Hurnard's early writings (especially Hinds' Feet on High Places and the sequel Mountain of Spices) were embraced by the mainstream Christian community, but later on in her life she seems to have departed from orthodoxy. Eagles' Wings to the Higher Places has been said to support non-orthodox beliefs in pantheism, universalism, and gnosticism. Unveiled Glory tells of how she came to believe in Universal reconciliation.

5.0 out of 5 stars LIFE CHANGING May 25, 2006

By K. A. Hand

Format:Paperback

Young or old, man or woman, this book is sure to minister to your heart! You will read about a Much-Afraid as she makes her journey to the High Places. A fascinating allegory of a personal relationship with Jesus and the sacrifices of trust, obedience and resistance of temptation as we ourselves journey with the Master. An allegory of how the most terrible enemies, like Craven Fear, Bitterness, Resentment and Self-Pity speak into our lives their detestable lies. This is a very eye-opening book that will help you understand how all things work for the good of those who love the Lord. Even if you are not a Christian, this book will touch the fibers of your heart as well. You should not walk away from reading this book!

4.0 out of 5 stars A powerful read, but be forewarned! December 1, 2008

By C. Davidson

Format:Paperback

This book was a huge blessing to me. God used it to really encourage my walk at the season I am in right now. It was a powerful and timely read for me, and confirmed things in my individual life that I sense God doing.
Being so encouraged by it and encouraging other Christians to read it, I was very sad and disappointed to learn that after the writing of HFOHP,the author, Hannah Hurnard fell into new age, occultism, reincarnation, etc. Her "doctrine" became a very flawed and inaccurate one and very different from the True doctrine of God's Word, the Bible. So, I wanted to give a warning to all Christians to enjoy HFOHP (perhaps even "Mountain of Spices" is okay. I've not read it yet.), but to stay away from her other writtings, as they are tainted with new age false doctrine. I feel her views were still pure at the point in which she wrote HFOHP, but not long after, she hit a downward spiral. So, just be careful and be forewarned.

I read this book when I was a teenager over 20 years ago. It changed my life and set me on my own journey. I have reflected on the book many times in my life. A wonderful impact on a broken lonely girl.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hind's Feet on High Places/Devotional November 3, 2006

By S. Hyatt

Format:Paperback

This is an excellent book for someone who is dealing with fears. It also is an excellent book for learning to trust and lean upon God. It will challenge you to look at your own real-life situation and see where you are falling short! I recommend this book for the fearful and those who have difficulty trusting in God!

5.0 out of 5 stars High Places gets High Rating June 1, 2007

By M. O. Jones

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

This is an outstanding book. Do as the author advises -- read the allegory first (it's on the left pages). The allegory itself is worth the price of the book. Then go back to the beginning. Each day read one page of the allegory followed by the devotion on the opposite page. Do it slowly and prayerfully. This has been very effective, even life changing, for me. I must admit that some days I read two pages of the allegory followed by their respective devotions. I would especially recommend this book to those people who tend to be fearful or who struggle in their trust of the Lord. After all, the name of the heroine is Much-Afraid. However, I also believe that this is a book for all people.

By Anne Elizabeth

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

This book takes the spiritually driven person on a journey towards becoming a servant of the Kingdom of Heaven. Hunard's allegory brings its reader face to face with personal faults and failings, but follows up with the healing love of the Shepard, Jesus Christ. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a new life in Christ! This book in particular if you enjoy writing in your books. =-)

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books January 27, 2007

By Sir Guyon

Format:Paperback

Hinds' Feet On High Places is one of the best books that I have every read. It moved me very much. I am not a big reader, but I could not put the book down. If you open your mind, you can see how this book can relate to your every day walk with Jesus. Also I would like to note that this isn't just a book for a woman, but anyone can relate to this book.
