pilgrim

Terry Hayes found international success when his 2014 debut novel I am Pilgrim became a critically-acclaimed best seller. But in achieving his lifelong ambition, the former journalist and Hollywood screenwriter suddenly found himself in an abyss, searching for the emotional drive to take readers on another page-turning thriller ride. Now, with The Year of the Locust, Hayes has found his groove again, delivering a masterful, suspense-filled espionage story that breaks the mold of today’s spy genre.

If you are listening to this review on the Sabbath, then I would like to wish you a Sabbath filled with the wisdom from the Lord in rightly handling the word of truth.

This week’s review is for the film, John Bunyan: The People's Pilgrim

Description

This documentary reveals the story of John Bunyan's life, his personal struggles, his triumphs, and his remarkable legacy. Join us as we follow the well-trod path of John Bunyan from the "Slough of Despond" through the narrow gate and on to the "Celestial City."

The Pilgrim's Progress, by John Bunyan, is one of the most famous and influential works of English literature.  Since its first publication in 1678, it has never been out of print and is reported to have sold more copies than any other book except for the Bible.  But who was the man behind this great work? This documentary reveals the story of John Bunyan's life, his personal struggles, his triumphs, and his remarkable legacy. The uneducated son of a tinker, Bunyan survived the horrific English Civil War only to be jailed during an era of great religious persecution.  From his jail cell Bunyan wrote his great allegory of the Christian life.

A lot of times people feel the tug of God and they understand, “Yes, God called me.”  But once they come into the church they think, “I’m here, God. Now what?”  Taking a page out of Abraham’s life teaches us about the life of faith: what to expect, and what to be open to and aware of as we begin making our own faith journey. VF-2329 Isaiah 51:1-2, Acts 7:2-3

God wants you to be a pilgrim. Does that mean you need to wear unusual clothing and carry odd-looking firearms, or is there something else God expects?

Have you ever been on a pilgrimage?

“The Camino de Santiago […], known in English as the Way of St James, is a network of pilgrims' ways or pilgrimages leading to the shrine of the apostle Saint James the Great in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia in northwestern Spain.” (Wikipedia)

On May 17th 2023, Tina is starting off on a big adventure and physical challenge: Walking the Camino Portugués, a 250+ (depending on the variation) kilometre path from Porto, Portugal, to Santiago de Compostela, Spain. On foot, in about 2 weeks.

The Camino Portugués is part of the Camino de Santiago’s network of paths spanning Europe. Hundreds of thousands are arriving at Santiago’s cathedral each year, celebrating their accomplishment, and hugging fellow strangers who, too, have come from far to experience the transformative magic of Camino.

In an age when fast-and-far travel is available to many, witnessing every step of the way, like a chain of hundreds of thousands of moments, is a unique call for presence and deceleration. The slowness and sweat, the repetition and reflection, offer the kind of answers and change that many a pilgrim sets out for.

In this semi episode of WHYLD Podcast, you learn about the Camino de Santiago and are invited to follow Tina’s journey.
