Fundamental to the Iona Community's understanding of spirituality
is the conviction that God's Spirit permeates the whole of life -
'every blessed thing', as George MacLeod, the Community's founder,
said. God is thus to be encountered and experienced in the busy
daily routine of our lives, and through our relationships, not just
in tranquil moments and remote, beautiful places like Iona. The
Community's approach to spirituality does not distinguish between
the sacred and the secular. Prayer and politics, work and worship
are all of a piece. This holistic spirituality of engagement -
rooted in prayer and scripture - stands in contrast to some of the
more ethereal, nostalgic and self-indulgent approaches on offer
these days. Pathways for Pilgrims is a timely resource for
individuals and groups wishing to explore this integrated approach
to spirituality. Each of the four weeks of the book covers an area
of the Iona Community's engagement: with God, with the church, with
the world, and engaging as community. The days include a 'community
experience', a Bible reading, material for reflection, prayers and
thoughts to ponder. The book was structured and edited by spiritual
director and workshop leader Chris King, and written by members of
the Iona Community, with contributions by Norman Shanks, Jan Sutch
Pickard, Brian Woodcock, John Harvey, Peter Millar, Graeme Brown,
Ruth Harvey and Neil Paynter. Pathways for Pilgrims is a companion
book to Iona: God's Energy - the Vision and Spirituality of the
Iona Community and Living by the Rule: The Rule of the Iona
Community, also published by Wild Goose.
