What characterizes the contemporary renaissance of pilgrimage? Which theological challenges and implications does current pilgrimage practices create? With personal pilgrim experiences as a starting point, Jensen combines fresh perspectives from social sciences, historical studies and theology in unfolding a broad foundation for understanding pilgrimage today. Analysing Martin Luther's critique of pilgrimage, Jensen discovers a hitherto unnoticed complexity in Luther. Possible Lutheran contributions to an ecumenical theology of pilgrimage are being discussed. Drawing on the Luther-reception of the Scandinavian creational theological tradition, the author makes present-day pilgrim experiences the starting point for a Lutheran contribution to a contemporary ecumenical theology of pilgrimage.
