Passion for Pilgrimage
The Christian spiritual journey is a pilgrimage to wholeness, a search for home that is in God. In this classic work on contemporary spiritual living, Alan Jones explores the various parts of the pilgrimage home. Using literature, art, and biblical texts as illustrations, he explores our search for light and love, repentance, and forgiveness in the context of the Passion and Easter stories. An excellent book for group study during Lent and Easter, this edition includes study questions at the end of each chapter. Passion for Pilgrimage is also provocative reading for individuals at any time of the year who want to understand the Christian journey more deeply.

Based as a pilgrimage of a Lenten journey, author Alan Jones uses literature, art, philosophy, psychology, biblical texts, and his own experience to create a detailed yet precise vision of the meaning of life. Mr. Jones at times gets a little too "praise Jesus!" for my tastes - my experience has been that when faith and spirituality reverts to the use of Explanation/Exclamation Points!! that you are not digging enough for the inner meaning. But those times are thankfully rare. One is left with a peaceful little book that would be a good guide for meditation as one moves through the Lenten season.
