Travel as a Spiritual Act
Special guest Rick Steves closes out our 4-week worship series, Quest: Travel as a Spiritual Act, by posing the question: do we want to travel as a tourist (vacation, consumption), a traveler (education, learn about others), or a pilgrim (transformational experience, learn about ourselves)? We can travel (near or far) in a way that gets us closer to God.

Quest: Travel as a Spiritual Act Week 4 - Returning Home
We reflect on what it means to return. No matter how far or near we've traveled, we've practiced a pilgrim heart, and now everything is different. We've been transformed, we hold priceless memory-souvenirs, we've made new friends and developed unique perspectives. As we unpack and soothe our weary feet, we notice the new convictions to be more radically involved and loving citizens of humanity right where we reside. We reflect on Jesus' commandment, first echoed throughout Hebrew Scripture, to love one another as he has loved us. What brings us beyond this quest and beckons us into God's extraordinary diversity?
