Podcasts about Pilgrimage

To celebrate Melvyn Bragg's 27 years presenting In Our Time, five well-known fans of the programme have chosen their favourite episodes. Author and columnist Caitlin Moran has picked the episode on the English medieval mystic Margery Kempe and recorded an introduction to it. Margery Kempe (1373-1438) produced an account of her extraordinary life in a book she dictated, "The Book of Margery Kempe." She went on pilgrimage to Jerusalem, to Rome and Santiago de Compostela, purchasing indulgences on her way, met with the anchoress Julian of Norwich and is honoured by the Church of England each 9th November. She sometimes doubted the authenticity of her mystical conversations with God, as did the authorities who saw her devotional sobbing, wailing and convulsions as a sign of insanity and dissoluteness. Her Book was lost for centuries, before emerging in a private library in 1934.This In Our Time episode was first broadcast in June 2016. The image (above), of an unknown woman, comes from a pew at Margery Kempe's parish church, St Margaret's, Kings Lynn and dates from c1375.WithMiri Rubin Professor of Medieval and Early Modern History at Queen Mary, University of LondonKatherine Lewis Senior Lecturer in History at the University of HuddersfieldAndAnthony Bale Professor of Medieval Studies at Birkbeck University of LondonProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:John H.

In the 1950s, caller Joy’s dad painted the ceiling of her bedroom navy blue, covered it in glowing stars, and gifted her a telescope! Thousands flock to Downey for the annual masa pilgrimage at the Amapola Market!  Another listener recalls his favorite gift as a kid, a BB gun. However, he accidentally shot a bird and felt so bad, to this day he has never picked up a gun, BB or otherwise. Meanwhile Andy and Rahner talk traumatic haircuts from their past and being dumped by their barber! Andy plays listener talkbacks from people who recall their favorite Christmas gifts when they were kids.  One caller said we mustn’t encourage greed, which Rahner refers to as toy shaming. Media was so much cooler back in the midcentury. In 1996, what was the hottest Christmas gift? Of course it was Tickle Me Elmo! Others that followed include Buzz Lightyear, Tamagotchi, Furbies, Beanie Babies and Bratz Dolls. And now we have the Labubu. Andy rounds out the show by chatting with a GI Joe collector.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this special crossover episode of "AMDG: A Jesuit Podcast" and "The Jesuit Border Podcast," we hear from both Fr. Brian Strassburger, SJ, the executive director of Del Camino Jesuit Border Ministries and Cardinal Joseph Tobin of Newark, NJ. First, Fr. Brian gives us an update on what it's like living and working on the US-Mexico border. He reflects on how Advent provides an important lens in approaching this ministry and shares stories and reflections from both his daily work and Scripture. Then, we hear Fr. Brian's interview with Cardinal Tobin. Brian is joined by his cohost, Joe Nolla, SJ, and together they talk with Cardinal Tobin about immigration and the Church's role in accompanying the most vulnerable.

Show Notes  Welcome friends to the Next Chapter with Charlie. On a recent blog I wrote the following note… "On my last trip (3 weeks in Asia), I discovered a new mantra for taking time away from home. "I no longer go on vacations to sight-see. Instead, I take pilgrimages to experience wonder." What if I made that my mantra for every single day? "Anticipate little except moments of surprise and wonder." And so with this, I chat with author, teacher, and landscape architect, Terry Hershy. LINKS You can find out much more about Terry and his post Sabbath Moment HERE.  

Think about some of the great places you’d like to see before you’re too old and feeble to get out anymore.  What if you had an extra excuse, beyond just your vacation desire, to take action and buy that plane ticket? 

Fr. Elias Mary Mills, F.I., served as Rector of the Shrine Church at the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Lacrosse, Wisconsin, from 2016 to 2021. He was ordained in May of 2000. In Today's Show: What are the origins of the Nativity scene? Is it okay for already frozen embryos to be given to surrogate mothers? Why do some areas have a low number of priestly vocations? How should someone deal with intrusive thoughts? If someone lies and renounces their faith when they didn't mean it, would they then lose their salvation? When do thoughts turn into sins? Why does God allow suffering? Why are some embarrassed to show their faith? What should a Marian relationship look like? Why is IVF evil? Resources: Fr.

S3, Ep : 18. Exploring Spain's Romerías and pilgrimages through tradition, culture, and Journey.Hola Chicos! Big news!I'm super excited to announce this new chapter of Spanish Loops today. In this episode we cherished some rituals of Spain: the vibrant, festive Romerías and the more solemn, spiritual Pilgrimages. We explore how each is rooted in centuries of Spanish Catholic tradition, how they shaped communities, and why they still resonate today in our pueblos and cities.Expect stories from Andalusian fairs, the bustle of romerías with flamenco and flowers, contrasted against the quiet faith-filled journey of pilgrims on ancient routes like Camino de Santiago. We'll unpack how these rituals reflect Spain's identity blending celebration and devotion. It's a look at heritage, faith, culture and belonging.If you love tradition, history, travel, or spirituality or just want to understand why Spain's festivals feel so alive, this chapter is for you. Share it with friends. Let's spark conversations, awaken memories, and maybe inspire a pilgrimage or a romería visit of your own.See you in the next loop.

We're continuing the Priestess Pilgrimage re-release series with one of my favorite conversations I've ever had — recorded in a tiny pink hotel room in Athens with my best friend, the brilliant and beloved Layla Martin. In Part 3, we travel through Crete, one of the last known matriarchal societies on Earth. Layla and I explore what happens when feminine spiritual authority isn't erased but honored — and how cultures change when women and men hold power side-by-side. We dive into the serpent priestesses of ancient Crete, the origins of Kundalini, the hidden role caves played in feminine rites, and what it means to turn up the dial on your own divinity in a grounded, embodied way. We also share the very human, very messy, hilariously sacred moments inside the cave ceremony — a reminder that sometimes the divine arrives with sweat, fear, laughter, and tourists stumbling through your initiation. If you've ever felt the pull toward ancient feminine wisdom or sensed there's more to your own divinity than you've been taught… this episode is a homecoming. In this episode, we explore: • Ancient Crete & what true feminine leadership looked like • Why high priestesses held political, spiritual, and cultural authority • The serpent priestesses & how Kundalini was encoded in art • How caves became temples for birth, fertility, sexuality & magic • Using psychedelics intentionally to awaken—not escape • Preparing your body and nervous system for spiritual expansion • The real, messy moments behind mystical experiences Key Moments: [00:01:13] Returning from Crete & why this leg of the pilgrimage mattered [00:03:59] The soul memory that called Emily & Layla to Crete [00:04:47] Gnosis: the ancient queendom run by priestesses [00:07:21] Minoan matriarchy & serpent priestess symbolism [00:22:39] Entering the cave — the womb of the earth [00:28:11] Sacred sexuality & psychedelics as pathways to the divine [00:30:27] The cave initiation: fear, clearing & cosmic humor [00:36:03] Preparing your body for spiritual expansion [00:52:21] Mystical states without substances [01:00:08] Meditation as the foundation for integration About Layla Martin: Founder of the VITA Method, Tantra teacher, and internationally respected guide in sexual, emotional, and spiritual awakening.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for November 26th Publish Date:  November 26th Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, November 26th and Happy Birthday to I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Which grocery stores are open on Thanksgiving? Christmas pilgrimage tour to offer a glimpse of historic Marietta homes Cobb cracks down on unregulated pet sales All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: Ingles 1 STORY 1: Which grocery stores are open on Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving’s almost here, and let’s be honest—someone’s gonna forget the cranberry sauce or run out of butter. Happens every year, right? If you’re that person (no judgment), don’t panic. While big stores like Walmart, Target, and Costco are taking the day off, a handful of grocery stores will have their doors open—just with shorter hours. Here’s the deal: Amazon Fresh? 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Food Lion? Closing at 3 (or 4 in some spots). Sprouts? Open till 7. Walgreens? Only the 24-hour ones. Moral of the story? Double-check your stores—or embrace the chaos. STORY 2: Christmas pilgrimage tour to offer a glimpse of historic Marietta homes The Marietta Pilgrimage Christmas Home Tour is back for its 39th year, running Dec. 5–7, and this time it’s all about the historic Kennesaw Avenue neighborhood. Think festive, decked-out homes, rich history, and a little holiday magic. Five private homes—plus churches, museums, and other historic spots—are opening their doors. Highlights? The 1840 Gignilliat-Griffin-Gilbert House with its Romanesque marble mantels, and the Buttolph House, where 12-foot ceilings and original fireplaces have been lovingly restored. Tickets are $35 in advance ($40 during the tour) and cover all three days. Complimentary shuttles will run from Mill Street. For tickets and details, visit mariettapilgrimage.com. STORY 3: Cobb cracks down on unregulated pet sales  Cobb County just tightened the leash on unregulated pet sales. A new ordinance, approved unanimously by the Board of Commissioners, now lets animal services officers issue citations for illegal roadside sales of dogs, cats, and rabbits—think parking lots, flea markets, and sidewalks. The ordinance doesn’t stop licensed breeders or pop-up adoptions, but it cracks down on shady sellers. Ann Lewis and her 9-year-old twins, Hadley and Ellie, spoke in support. “We’ve seen puppies sold from car trunks,” Ellie said. Three related amendments also passed, including one allowing shelters to shorten hold times during emergencies. Cobb’s shelter has already taken in over 6,200 animals this year, and space is tight. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: STRAND THEATRE STORY 4: MHS students and volunteers help feed hundreds ahead of Thanksgiving break Marietta High didn’t just hand out food before Thanksgiving break—they showed up for their people. Over 200 families walked away with bags full of fresh produce and pantry staples, thanks to a team effort that felt more like a big, messy family reunion than a food drive. The JROTC kids and football players? They were out there at the crack of dawn on Nov. 19, hauling 10,000 pounds of food like champs. Superintendent Dr. Grant Rivera put it best: “This is what community looks like. Our students know they’re cared for, supported, and surrounded by love.” It’s not just a holiday thing, either—MHS has families’ backs all year long. STORY 5: ‘No more good 10 acres’: Parks director lays out path forward for Cobb  Cobb County’s running out of land for parks—like, really running out. Michael Brantley, the parks director, didn’t sugarcoat it when he spoke to the Kiwanis Club. “There’s no good 100-acre plots left. Heck, not even 10-acre ones,” he said. Land’s expensive, and what’s left? Not exactly prime real estate. So, what’s the plan? Brantley says it’s time to rethink what we’ve already got—revamp, redevelop, make it work. Oh, and there’s the Tritt property, nearly 30 acres near East Cobb Park. It’s tied up in restrictions, but there’s hope. And trails? Big plans there—connecting the Silver Comet to the Beltline? Game-changer. Break: STORY 6: Public comment sought on Orrs Ferry plan   Got thoughts on the future of Orrs Ferry? The National Park Service wants to hear ’em. They’re working on a big plan—like, 20 years big—for the Chattahoochee River’s Orrs Ferry unit, and they’re asking the public to weigh in by Dec. 21. What’s in the works? On the west side: new trails, restrooms, picnic spots, parking, and even a restored meadow. The east side? A bridge over Crayfish Creek, trail connections, and water access. Oh, and they’re rethinking old buildings—repurpose or remove? Got ideas? What’s missing? Check out the plan (and comment!) online. Your voice matters. STORY 7: Cumberland to launch driverless shuttle system  Cumberland’s gearing up for something straight out of the future: driverless shuttles. Thanks to $6.6 million in federal funding (plus $1.1 million from the CID), a fleet of eight ADA-accessible, autonomous shuttles is set to hit the streets in 2027. They’ll loop through hotspots like Truist Park, the Cobb Convention Center, Cumberland Mall, and even the Chattahoochee River. Kim Menefee, CID’s Executive Director, calls it a game-changer for transit—healthier communities, less traffic, and a model for the whole country. Oh, and rides? Free. The Hopper pilot proved it works, with 11,000 riders onboard. The future’s rolling in. We’ll have closing comments after this.

In this episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, we explore the mysterious, the supernatural, and the uncanny connections between Thanksgiving and the world beyond. We begin with the history of the holiday itself, discovering how early colonial settlers and Indigenous communities held spiritual worldviews that still echo through the season. Harvest festivals around the world have long been linked with spirits of the land, ancestral presence, and rituals meant to honor those who came before. Many believe that late autumn — with its long nights and thinning veil — remains a powerful time for supernatural activity. Listeners will hear stories of haunted Thanksgiving tables where ghostly relatives appear, phantom footsteps echo through old family homes, and entire holiday gatherings are disrupted by unexplained activity. We dive into cases where families report apparitions during the holiday meal, cold spots at the dinner table, and pets reacting to unseen visitors who may be checking in during this emotionally charged season. We explore America's famously haunted historic locations with Thanksgiving ties: • Old New England homes where colonial spirits still roam. • Haunted kitchens where cooks claim to see shadow figures. • Towns where Thanksgiving parades have been followed by strange sightings. The episode also touches on the supernatural symbolism of gratitude itself. Many cultures believe that expressing thankfulness opens spiritual pathways, inviting ancestral blessings or heightened intuition. Could the energy of the holiday actually amplify the paranormal? We examine stories from people who experienced vivid dreams, synchronicities, or messages from deceased loved ones around Thanksgiving. From eerie encounters on holiday road trips to unsettling events during Black Friday, this episode blends history, folklore, and firsthand accounts. Whether you're carving a turkey or exploring haunted history, this Thanksgiving might be more supernatural than you think.   Welcome to the 222 Paranormal Podcast, your gateway to the captivating world of the supernatural.

Mike Erre joins Phil and Skye to discuss a New York Times column by David Brooks. He says America's divisions will only heal when we abandon shallow labels and war metaphors, and instead see one another as fellow pilgrims on a journey. America's Catholic bishops issue a stern rebuke of the Trump administration's dehumanizing rhetoric and policies, which makes Phil wonder why evangelical leaders can't do the same. Then, Skye talks to Kentucky's Democratic governor, Andy Beshear, about why he's so popular in a state that Donald Trump won by 30 points, and how his party can begin to narrow the "God gap" with voters.

He challenges us to reflect on our days with the lens of 2 Maccabees - acknowledging God's presence in each moment of our story. Additionally, Fr. Mike shares the miraculous conversion story of St. Mary of Egypt. Today's readings are 2 Maccabees 3, Sirach 45-46, and Proverbs 24:10-12.
