Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pilgrimage has been an important practice for Christians since the fourth century, but for many people these days it is no more than a relic of church history, utterly irrelevant to their lives. In THE ACCIDENTAL PILGRIM author and theologian Maggi Dawn shares her own gradual discovery of what it means to be a pilgrim, and suggests ways in which we can rediscover this ancient spiritual discipline in our global, twenty-first century world. Study trips to the Holy Land, frustrated pilgrimages as a young mother and internal journeys of soul all feature in this beautiful and inspiring memoir. Exploring both the past and the present of pilgrimage, it is a compelling invitation to all on the journey of faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once a "nice pagan girl," acclaimed poet and scholar Judith Sornberger recounts her journey through faith in this beautiful personal memoir, highlighted by a trip to Italy. As a professor of English and Women's Studies, Sornberger had long been interested in the female role in scripture, iconography, and religious literature. When she began questioning her personal choices regarding Church and religion, Sornberger was drawn to art to find some answers. Her journey through the churches and museums of Italy, gazing upon powerful images of scriptural scenes, led her to insights into the place of Mary, along with other women, in a life of faith and service. Within this carefully told narrative and full-color images of many of the works of art that inspired Sornberger, the reader will find much to influence his or her own remarkable journey of faith.

Book excerpt: Talian Unsuana has never been better than average - in fact, average, for her, is pretty good. When she's not being average, she's more or less insane. The birds and the beasts, even the weather, talk direct to her head. She tries to drown them all out with EDDs (electronic distraction devices). She prefers computer games to the real world, and often gets the two mixed up. Hence, when Talian finds herself hanging upside down in the midst of a storm on a deserted mountainside one day, she's not sure how seriously to take her situation. It looks real enough; it feels real... If only the voices in her head would cut it out! Voices. The strangest thing about them is that they consistently give her good advice. Seems the thing that keeps her alive also keeps her insane? Whatever, the mountain is full of monsters and disasters, and the voices are telling her to run... Must she run forever? Can she fight back? If the world is fake, is there any point? If it's real, what could she possibly do? She's average. No question there. With so much self-doubt to overcome, Talian seems poorly placed to vanquish the worst monster of them all, the one in her own mind. But that's the monster she must harness if she wants to avert the catastrophe that threatens not only Lellia, but the whole Hasserican Empire. The Accidental Pilgrim describes a little known period of the Hasserican Empire. Based on primary sources and written by a first-hand witness, it has good claim to being the most authoritative account ever published. This newly translated edition is the first to appear in English. More information: http://cheravel.wikidot.com

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After one Silicon Valley project meeting too many, David Moore returned to Dublin with too much money to get a real job, and no idea what to do next. The Accidental Pilgrim follows the recovering dotcommer as he rides two thousand miles across Europe in pursuit of himself and the Celtic saint Columbanus - the Roy Keane of the early medieval Church. A bad-ass early Irish saint who wouldn't stand for such ephemeral notions as identity crises, if anyone could sort the craic-loving but well-mannered young man, Columbanus would. On the way to the saint's final resting place in Northern Italy, there are bee-stings in Malin Head, melting roads along the Loire, and instant celebrity in eastern France. A freewheeling traveller's tale with a dash of medieval history thrown in, The Accidental Pilgrim presents an unlikely double-act and a rewarding journey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In An Accidental Pilgrim, retired physicist and Argentinean immigrant Maria Caponi, a non-religious widow of Jewish heritage, takes readers on a transformative journey along the rugged and challenging "El Camino de Santiago" trail. While it may seem like a typical hiking story, Maria's memoir is anything but ordinary. Her prose and poetry are woven together to create a tapestry of her life, including her childhood in Argentina, her experiences as a graduate student in the U.S., her marriage to her best friend, and the many journeys that have shaped her identity. An Accidental Pilgrim is a memoir that will resonate with anyone who has embarked on a journey of self-discovery. Maria's words invite readers to explore the world's beauty and complexity, reflect on the past, and embrace the unknown possibilities of the future. --- "Maria Caponi invites us along on an arduous, wondrous journey, as she hikes El Camino with a group of friends, learning again and again to love herself, her one precious life, the beautiful world in which she finds herself, wherever she goes. In the process, the reader also falls in love with this pilgrim - vulnerable, funny, warm, wise, and deeply human as she is." -Cecilia Woloch, Poet, writer, Fulbright Foundation fellow, Pushcart Prize award winner, author of Tsigan, the Gypsy Poem.

Book excerpt: "This book describes the rich and varied influences on the author's life and poetry: the black Baptist church; the books lining her minister father's study; her meetings with outstanding African Americans such as ministers Charles A. Tindley, composer of 150 hymns, and S.S. Jones, who had the vision to know that black life in Oklahoma was important to record on film; poets and writers Countee Cullen, Sterling Brown, and Oscar Micheaux; and her lifelong acquaintance with Langston Hughes." "Begin with her birth at the beginning of the Harlem Renaissance. Grow up with her during the Great Depression, which, in spite of its negative effects, still allowed many joys of a Thirties childhood. Laugh with her about childhood pranks, and witness her emergence as a precocious poet whose first poem was published at the age of thirteen. Witness the contrast in her early years as the only black child in her class in one of the most racist cities of the North and her adolescence in all-black historic Sumner High School in St. Louis. Follow her to Virginia State College during World War II, and then to Detroit in 1946 as a young bride. Get to know her family. Share her beliefs and values, and understand the positive impact she has had on others through her poetry, her teaching, and her editing and publishing of numerous books by other African American poets."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pilgrim-themed spirituality for Christian formation, Pilgrim Spirituality resources everyday Christianity, congregational life, social outreach, and religious travel through definitional frames of pilgrimage. Pilgrimage is a prominent biblical image. Yet, despite its contemporary resurgence, its capacity for Christian formation remains untapped. While our understanding of pilgrimage has been too narrow, we lack a definitional framework that fosters transformational practice. Definitions matter, thought creates possibilities, and intentionality enhances experience. Recognizing pilgrimage as a comprehensive expression of the Christian life, Pilgrim Spirituality provides tools for perceiving spiritual possibilities, engaging situational context, and interpreting lived experience. Espousing both personal and social holiness, Pilgrim Spirituality gives definitional status to the Other, attends to the self, and seeks the presence of God in the facts in which we find ourselves. Pilgrim Spirituality examines Christian concepts of time, place, and journey, while emphasizing the personal, corporate, incarnational, metaphorical, and tensional character of the pilgrim life. Exploring the motives, experiences, and practices of pilgrimage, Pilgrim Spirituality resources readers in their destinational pursuit of the Christian faith: the union of God, self, and the Other.

Book excerpt: Accidental Pilgrim-from Mammogram to Miracle by Mary Erin O'Brien examines faith and humor as shock absorbers to offset her jolting, out-of-the-blue diagnosis of Stage 3 breast cancer. She is like a tour guide as she invites readers along her trajectory path through cancer (that she dubs her 'Voyage to the bottom of the "C"). She navigates through a myriad of foreign medical experiences like a curious explorer, finding humor along the way. Investigating the inverse relationship between the physical and spiritual aspects of cancer, she notes that as her body weakened from the battery of treatments, her spirit strengthened and soared toward renewed faith. The story takes a twist when a mysterious nun all dressed in white at a small desert chapel conveys a prophetic message of a miracle healing. The nun emphasizes, "It will be by your faith that you are healed." All factors converge when the healing occurs - and in a most unlikely setting. A well-known oncologist confirms the healing and declares it "not medically explainable." This compelling yet entertaining story affirms the resilience of the human spirit when faced with tragic circumstances. It also demonstrates the transformative power of faith that can lead to healing, hope, and health.
