Pilgrim Road : A Benedictine Journey Through Lent (Revised)
$23.95Add to cartRevised edition of a classic Lenten devotional guide from Morehouse
* Includes a revised introduction and questions for reflection
In the view of St. Benedict of Nursia, the Lenten journey is an inner pilgrimage with Christ
into the deepest parts of ourselves, to be marked not so much by external observances,
such as fasting and self-denial, as by a deepening of our relationship with God.Benedictine monk Albert Holtz develops that journey theme through meditations written
during a fifteen-country pilgrimage while on sabbatical. At the heart of each reflection is
the lesson it teaches about our inner spiritual journey. By applying Benedict’s monastic
wisdom to the everyday concerns and aspirations of modern Christians, Pilgrim Road
helps contemporary spiritual seekers travel along and experience the journey of Lent in
the most positive, meaningful, and fruitful manner.For use as a Lenten devotional by individuals and groups.
