In response to the conversation with James Bishop, they discuss how pilgrimages can mark turning points and how art (specifically music) can mark such journeys.

Walking in Love: James Bishop and Pilgrimage (Ep 48)

Season 3 · Episode 48

dimanche 21 mai 2023 • Duration 39:28

Musician James Bishop describes his journey five years ago of walking over half of the Pacific Crest Trail in California. Most of this time was spent in solitude, during which he emptied his thoughts and concluded that meaning in life only comes from the quality of one's relationships with others, the world, oneself and God; the greatest of all that remains is love. This five-month hike inspired a collection of songs that he is releasing, and on this episode, he performs one song, 'Wrecking My Body', about the danger of being stuck in his mind and how that has impacted his participation in society and church.

Engaging the Heart: Linda McCullough Moore and Pilgrimage (Ep 47)

Season 3 · Episode 47

dimanche 7 mai 2023 • Duration 34:59

Author and mentor Linda McCullough Moore reads and discusses her poem 'Asylum', reflecting on the choices and circumstances that have brought us to the present moment. She describes her experience on pilgrimage to Northumbria, UK, and the importance of connecting with the landscape and fellow pilgrims. For Linda, the spiritual journey is not only about mentally assenting to doctrines but primarily about engaging one's heart with God, other people, the world and oneself. Linda's faith, she says, depends on being connected with her local church through small groups and with God through prayer.

An Appalachian Journey: Matt Bickett and Pilgrimage (Ep 46)

Season 3 · Episode 46

dimanche 23 avril 2023 • Duration 55:10

Church musician Matt Bickett explores the roots of his family and wider Appalachian culture through visiting the gravesites of his ancestors in eastern Kentucky.

Matt describes the contributions Appalachian culture can make for oppressed communities in other locations.

Season 3 · Episode 43

lundi 13 mars 2023 • Duration 40:18
