Put yourself into the ancient Church and celebrate our common tradition! Immerse yourself in something greater than yourself and experience being a part of the universal Body of Christ, “on the ground” (and under the ground) in Rome! Visit the tombs of Peter and Paul, and stand on holy ground where Christians have prayed and worshiped since the first century.
If you are interested in joining me for my next pilgrimage to Rome, Italy, it is tentatively scheduled for May 18 - 29, 2024.
Please note that this is a walking tour, so participants must be able to walk several miles a day, often over uneven ground, cobblestones and stairs. The pilgrimage is an ecumenical experience - anyone who is Christian and 21 years or older is welcome to join us. Deposits will be due by December 1. More information, including costs, etc. will be coming by email. For questions, and to get on the “interested” email list (no obligation), email me at: [email protected]
I'm back, up and running, and ready to go - I should have a new JOURNEY episode within the next week or so - and because you are my loyal peeps, here is an exclusive, just-for-you, behind the scenes SNEAK PEEK into my new office:
This was for March 24th, recorded for the Ascension App
Thanks for your patience - here is our next installment of The Journey - it's session # 96, but I'm also calling it PART 1 of a "miniseries" on John chapter 6.
Whoever watches it first, please let me know if it looks good or if there are any problems with it - I get through the first two sections of the text on the feeding of the 5,000.
Enjoy!
I mentioned in The Journey that I wrote a song based on Isaiah 2, which is one of my favorite OT passages:
In days to come, the mountain of the Lord’s house
shall be established as the highest mountain, and raised above the hills.
All nations shall stream toward it. Many peoples shall come and say:
“Come, let us go up to the Lord’s mountain, to the house of the God of Jacob, That he may instruct us in his ways, and we may walk in his paths.” For from Zion shall go forth instruction, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
He shall judge between the nations, and set terms for many peoples.
They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; One nation shall not raise the sword against another, nor shall they train for war again. House of Jacob, come, let us walk in the light of the Lord!
I hope you like the song!
