The Christian life is a journey not just spiritually but also physically and experientially. As global travel becomes more accessible to us, we discover opportunities for our treks to become spiritually significant. We find ourselves in historic places where the Christian faith shaped entire civilizations. And we realize that we too are being changed---from tourists to pilgrims.
Christian George recovers the ancient spiritual practice of pilgrimage, in which travel to sacred sites leads to the transformation of the soul. In engaging narratives of his worldwide voyages, George follows in the footsteps of spiritual pilgrims from across the centuries, from Luther in Wartburg to Spurgeon in England. His travels to landmark places from Iona to Assisi give him not only a better understanding of his Christian heritage, but also of God's inner work in pilgrims throughout history and today.
Come with George as he breaks bread with Benedictines in Ireland and worships with the Taize community in France. Experience the transforming power of spiritual pilgrimage. And discover what it means to be a pilgrim as you follow God wherever he leads.
Christian George traveled to more than twenty-four countries in North America, Eastern and Western Europe, Scandinavia, Russia and Asia for ministry and missionary work. He has participated in Baptist World Alliance conventions in South Korea, Sweden, Germany, Canada and England, and served at a Billy Graham crusade in Amsterdam, Holland. His experience includes being a preacher, youth counselor, jazz band musician and creative artist. He is currently enrolled in the M.Div. Program at Beeson Divinity School, Samford University.
