Practicing Pilgrimage

On Being and Becoming God's Pilgrim People

Beschreibung

Practicing Pilgrimage: On Being and Becoming God's Pilgrim People explores both the theological, cultural, and spiritual roots of Christian pilgrimage, and is a "how-to" book on doing pilgrimage in our suburban backyards, city streets, rural roads, churches, retreat centers, and our everyday life. Brett Webb-Mitchell takes the ancient practice of Christian pilgrimage and applies it to our contemporary lives.

Autor

Brett Webb-Mitchell is interested in the place and presence of all people at God's banquet feast, including people with disabilities.

Currently he is the director of the School of the Pilgrim (http://www.schoolofthepilgrim.com), a teaching ministry that takes people on actual pilgrimages around the world to enable them to discover the pilgrimage they are on at home.
