Today, as in centuries past, a journey can become a spiritual experience rich with meaning and insight. \u003ci\u003eThe Journey\u003c\/i\u003e shows modern pilgrims how their travels can become rewarding encounters with the sacred. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This collaborative effort by Catholic journalist and her law-professor husband draws on the couple's extensive travels, including a European pilgrimage they bravely undertook with their four children in the Catholic Church's Jubilee Year 2000. In chapters written alternately by each, the Scaperlandas offer practical advice, personal reflection and stories from journeys taken individually and together. Whether traveling through life or on a tour bus, they ask readers to consider the difference between being a tourist and a pilgrim. \u003cp\u003eDrawing deeply on their own experience of consecrated travel, the Scaperlandas guide readers into the heart of the pilgrim experience. Much of their advice answers questions like: \u003ci\u003eWhat are the most promising pilgrimage destinations? How can families go on pilgrimage? How can vacations and tourism be transformed into a journey of pilgrimage? \u003c\/i\u003eThey also give special attention to practices and attitudes that can make all travel sacred. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Their depth of understanding enables readers to connect the inner and outer journeys--whether on trails halfway around the world or on the well-worn paths of home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maria Scaperlanda, Michael Scaperlanda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 082941617X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780829416176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Loyola Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 257\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.04h x 5.32w x 0.69d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2004 pg. 306\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/11\/2004 pg. 76","brand":"Maria Scaperlanda","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44072638251263,"sku":"9780829416176","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2555e434-b6df-4a5c-982e-c07695f02990.jpg?v=1685443149","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-journey-maria-scaperlanda-9780829416176","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
