Description
Experience the transformative journey with **The Crossway - Unabridged Audio Book on MP3**. This remarkable audio memoir by Guy Stagg chronicles his pilgrimage from Canterbury to Jerusalem, taken over the course of ten months in 2013. Despite being a non-believer, Stagg embarked on this extraordinary trek seeking healing from years of mental illness. Covering more than 5,500 kilometers across ten countries, this inspiring audio book invites listeners on a profound adventure that is both personal and universal.
Stagg's pilgrimage leads him through breathtaking landscapes as he climbs the Alps in winter, spends Easter with the Pope in Rome, and navigates through the complexities of modern-day Istanbul. Encountering acts of kindness from strangers—monks, nuns, priests, and local families—Stagg not only reflects on his own recovery but also gains invaluable insights into the lives of contemporary believers. The Crossway weaves together themes of travel, history, and spirituality, posing important questions about the meaning of faith in a secular world.

Description:
In 2013 Guy Stagg made a pilgrimage from Canterbury to Jerusalem. Though a non-believer, he began the journey after suffering several years of mental illness, hoping the ritual would heal him. For ten months he hiked alone on ancient paths, crossing ten countries and more than 5,500 kilometres. The Crossway is an account of this extraordinary adventure.
Having left home on New Year’s Day, Stagg climbed over the Alps in midwinter, spent Easter in Rome with a new pope, joined mass protests in Istanbul and survived a terrorist attack in Lebanon. Travelling without support, he had to rely each night on the generosity of strangers, staying with monks and nuns, priests and families. As a result, he gained a unique insight into the lives of contemporary believers and learnt the fascinating stories of the soldiers and saints, missionaries and martyrs who had followed these paths before him.
The Crossway is a book full of wonders, mixing travel and memoir, history and current affairs. At once intimate and epic, it charts the author’s struggle to walk towards recovery, and asks whether religion can still have meaning for those without faith.
