Ep. 79 | Thomas Merton Pilgrimage
from Begin Again Podcast · host John Chaffee
From August 18th to the 26th, I did a solo road trip down to Kentucky to stay at the Abbey of Gethsemani. This is the same Abbey where Thomas Merton lived and wrote so many of his books. This is a recap of that experience and some of the insights I personally got out of a week long silent retreat in the hills of Kentucky. Here is a youtube video I made of the trip: https://youtu.be/v93zvKmvBYo
