Review Quotes

"Wisdom Walking is an extraordinary invitation to spiritual transmutation, offered by one of the church's most singular theological alchemists. Drawing on his immense gifts as storyteller and guide, Gil Stafford shows us how to take up the art of pilgrimage as a long work of transformation, one which demands an unflinching journey into the dark night of the soul. The compensations for this difficult work, as Wisdom Walking movingly illustrates, are immense: if we are willing to walk into the fires of pilgrimage, we may yet transform the stuff of our everyday lives into the gold of spiritual wisdom."
-Gaymon Bennett, Arizona State University
