The Word Guild Canadian Christian Writing Awards finalistPilgrimage is a spiritual discipline not many consider. Aren''t the destinations far? Don''t they involve a lot of time and walking? Just a few years ago, Arthur Paul Boers wasn''t thinking about pilgrimage either. But he began to sense a deep call from God to walk the five-hundred-mile pilgrimage route known as Camino de Santiago, ending in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, at a cathedral that is said to hold the relics of the apostle James.In these pages he opens to us his incredible story of renewed spirituality springing from an old, old path walked by millions before him. It''s a story of learning to pray in new ways, embracing simplicity, forming community, living each day centered and focused, depending on God to provide. Joined by hundreds of others from all over the world, Boers points the way to deeper intimacy with God--a way made by walking in faith.
