Book Description
2018 ECPA Christian Book Award Winner 2018 Christopher Award Winner Two best friends, 500 miles, one wheelchair, and the challenge of a lifetime. Friendship takes on new meaning in this true story of Justin and Patrick, born less than two days apart in the same hospital. Best friends their whole lives, they grew up together, went to school together, and were best man in each other’s weddings. When Justin was diagnosed with a neuromuscular disease that robbed him of the use of his arms and legs, Patrick was there, helping to feed and care for him in ways he’d never imagined. Determined to live life to the fullest, the friends refused to give into despair or let physical limitations control what was possible for Justin. So when Justin heard about the Camino de Santiago, a 500-mile trek through Spain, he wondered aloud to Patrick whether the two of them could ever do it. Patrick’s immediate response was: “I’ll push you.” I’ll Push You is the real-life story of this incredible journey. A travel adventure full of love, humor, and spiritual truth, it exemplifies what every friendship is meant to be and shows what it means to never find yourself alone. You’ll discover how love and faith can push past all limits—and make us the best versions of ourselves.

Walking the Way Together
Author: Kathleen E. Jenkins
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0197553044
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
In Walking the Way Together, Kathleen Jenkins offers an up-close study of parents and their adult children who walk the Camino de Santiago together. A Catholic visitation site of medieval origins with walking paths across Europe, the Camino culminates at the shrine of Saint James in the city of Santiago de Compostela, the capital of Galicia, an autonomous region of Spain. It has become a popular point of religious tourism for Catholics, spiritual seekers, scholars, adventurers, and cultural tourists. In 2019, well over 300,000 people arrived at the Pilgrims Office seeking a certificate of completion; they had walked anywhere from one hundred to over eight hundred kilometers. Jenkins brings alive family stories of investing in pilgrimage as a practice for strengthening kin relationships and becoming a part of each other's emotional and spiritual lives. The social and spiritual encounters that either supported or inhibited these relational goals emerge as fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters describe walking for six hours or more each day over mountain, rural, and urban paths. They are stories of pleasant surprises, disappointments, lessons learned, and the far-reaching emotional power that the memory of ritual failures and successes can carry. Ultimately, they show the potential for pilgrimage to foster and maintain intimate ties in today's fragile world, to build an engaged social consciousness, and to encourage reflection on digital devices and social medium platforms in the pursuit of spirituality.

To the Field of Stars
Author: Kevin A. Codd
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 0802825923
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
"I am about to share here a story about stars that dance. . . . If the very thought of seeing stars dance piques your curiosity at some deep level of your soul, then pay attention to what follows, for the walk to the Field of Stars, to Santiago de Compostela, is a journey that has the power to change lives forever." -- from the introduction "Pilgrimage" is a strange notion to our modern, practical minds. How many of us have walked to a distant holy place in order to draw nearer to God? Yet the pilgrimage experience is growing these days in various parts of the world. Seeking to take stock of his life, Kevin Codd set out in July 2003 on a pilgrimage that would profoundly change his life. To the Field of Stars tells the fascinating story of his unusual spiritual and physical journey on foot across Spain to Santiago de Compostela, the traditional burial place of the apostle James the Greater. Each brief chapter chronicling Codd's thirty-five-day trek is dedicated to one or two days on the road. Codd shares tales of other pilgrims, his own changes of perspective, and his challenges and triumphs along the way -- all told with a disarming candor. Seen through the eyes of a Catholic priest who honors the religious worldview that originally gave rise to these medieval odysseys, "pilgrimage" comes to life and takes on new meaning in these pages.

Camino de Santiago

Book Description
About this book This book is a diary of what I felt while walking the Camino de Santiago. Camino is translated as road, but in this book, it means the French road, that is, Camino Francés Códex Calixtinus s. Ⅸ, and Camino village refers to the village through which this Camino passes. Records in 2013 and 2017 were reported in parallel. I tried not to stuff the words so that the feeling is not processed. There are some rough expressions. In some cases, the same content is repeated over and over again. Korean dialects are sometimes used. Local language pronunciation is also included. In the French road picture, the route represents the distance on the map, and the trip is the distance recorded with the GPS app. The remaining distance to Santiago is also listed. There was a loving encouragement from my wife Soonjeen. There was the unchanging faith of our children. There was a warm devotion of my wife's elder sister. There was a beautiful friendship of my old respectable friend. Thank you to the people of the Camino who shared comfort and encouragement with Buen Camino. Beware, I dedicate this book to those who died walking the Camino. About Camino de Santiago The Camino de Santiago is the road to the Santiago Cathedral in the city of Santiago de Compostela, in the northwestern part of Spain, where the remains of Saint James are enshrined. One of the twelve apostles, Saint James, was a missionary to the Iberian Peninsula as well as to Judea, and was arrested in Jerusalem in 44 AD and was the first martyrdom of the twelve apostles. In Acts 12:1-2, it is said,'It was about this time that King Herod arrested some who belonged to the church, intending to persecute them. He had James, the brother of John, put to death with the sword.' It is called Santiago in Spanish, Saint James in English, and Saint Jacques in French. Medieval pilgrims departed from their homes on foot or on horseback to go to the Cathedral of Santiago. Currently there are about 100 routes, and new routes are still being created. The four major routes in France, the Swiss route from St. Gallen in Switzerland, and the routes from Portugal and the UK are typical. Statistics show that in 2015 alone, 54,646 pilgrims from 114 countries passed through the Camino Francés, so to say, French roads, through the village of Saint Jean-Feed-fort in southern France. By country, the number of French people is the highest with 9,451, Koreans with 2,939, ranking 7th, Japanese with 523 and Chinese with 133.

Spanning nearly 50 years of family history, the book chronicles the remarkable lives of two creative talents, Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez. It's a story of father and son set against the backdrop of Hollywood; this narrative is organized around their physical and spiritual journey along the Camino de Santiago, Spain, the thousand-year-old pilgrimage path which traverses Galicia. It is the area from which Sheen's father emigrated to the U.S. and to which Estevez's own son has returned.

It is a story of family bonds and artistic advances and setbacks; of good choices and hard choices; of opportunities lost and opportunities found.
