As we climb the historic Traprain Law in East Lothian—a site deeply connected to the ancient origins of Scotland—we reflect on the physical reality of Jesus’ journey toward Jerusalem. This isn't just a metaphorical exercise; it's an invitation to use your body to process the deep themes of crucifixion and resurrection. We explore the "liminal space" of Holy Saturday, the place between despair and hope, and encourage listeners to walk slowly through their own personal history and the history of the world. Whether you are on a mountain trail or a neighborhood sidewalk, discover how faith is lived out through the physical act of moving forward even when the summit is not yet in view.Learn more about us:: https://www.rucktheway.com/Subscribe to our Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@RucktheWayMeet the founders: https://www.rucktheway.com/aboutSummary: A physical and spiritual reflection on Holy Week that encourages using the body to connect with the story of Jesus’ suffering, death, and resurrection while navigating life's "in-between" spaces.
