This week is part two of our conversation with our co-host Abby De Groot along with our friends Rikki Brons and Gayle Doornbos as they share about their adventure this summer on pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago in Spain. We recommend that you go back and listen to our last episode before diving into part two of the conversation. In this part of the conversation, we focus on what pilgrimage is, what it is all about, and how pilgrimage might even be educational—an adventure in pedagogy. We discuss the difference between pilgrimage and “going for a walk,” the role of community in our pilgrimage through life, and the way Christian educators might benefit from thinking about teaching as a sort of pilgrimage–walking on the way and seeking to faithfully follow Jesus. We hope you’ll be blessed and encouraged on your journey by listening in!
