Welcome to Season 9 of Turning to the Mystics. This season we are turning to The Way of a Pilgrim for spiritual guidance, a 19th-century account of a pilgrim’s journey towards unceasing prayer through the practice of the Jesus Prayer. In this episode, James Finley and Kirsten Oates explain the significance of the anonymous author and the practice of contemplative prayer. Jim shares his personal experience with the book and the impact it had on his spiritual journey. They conclude by discussing the context of the book and the importance of pilgrimage in the search for God.
