Sometimes I struggle with the dual nature of Christ: fully God and fully man. For me, it’s easier to see him as divine than as human. It keeps Him at a comfortable distance. From March 28 – April 6 I traveled with a group of 25 other pilgrims in the Holy Land...

The slum of Danaseri in Kathmandu, Nepal is a sacred place on par with the island of Iona in Scotland, St. Peter’s in Rome, Jerusalem, and Lourdes. Danaseri doesn’t look like much at the first glance. It looks like a place you wouldn’t want to go to or spend much time...

Dear fellow pilgrims, As you know, from time to time I like to send a bit of a personal letter to share what I’m excited about and thinking about Coracle. At the beginning of fall, it’s time for that letter! We’re just on the heels of the canonization of Mother...

I have been in many countries now. Eighty? Ninety? I’ve lost count. And some more than once, and some of those quite a few more times than once. I say that not to boast in any way. There are far more places that I haven’t been than I have, and many others have been in...

When Bill asked me to write about my experience as an intern this summer, I felt overwhelmed. How could I begin to put into words the gift that was my ten weeks at Corhaven? I can’t. However, I can tell you one thing and that is this: my internship at Corhaven...

Chris and her family attend Restoration Anglican Church, and here she reflects on a truth we’ve come to see again and again and again, that when God is ready to move he can do that very quickly, and he’s ready when we’re ready, and he knows when that is. Hers is a...

Our pilgrimage to Israel and Palestine had several purposes. We went to meet the peoples of this land. We went to better understand the reality and complexity of the contemporary Holy Land. We went to walk where Jesus walked. Most importantly, we went to learn...
