This is almost a metaphoric tale of a preacher traveling the American countryside seeking places to spread the gospel and raise up leaders to carry on after he heads out on the trail.
Reminds me of the old western movies where there is a preacher traveling on horseback from town to town to spread the word and sometimes even staying long enough to build a church. Enjoyed this very much.
