A unique Lenten resource is the Christ Walk program created by Anna
Courie, a former member of Emmanuel, Hampton. Anna created the program
and used it during Lent at Emmanuel. The program integrates exercise
(walking) with scripture and meditation. Anna calculated the distances
between various sites in the Holy Land (Jerusalem to Bethlehem,
Jerusalem to Damascus, etc.) and used these distances as goals for
individuals (or teams) to walk during Lent. Anna's book, Christ Walk: A 40 Day Spiritual Fitness Program, has just been made available on Amazon. You can contact Anna at christwalk@courie.com to learn more and ask questions about the program. You can also follow Christ Walk on Facebook.
"Christ Walk is a really good program for those who would like to do
something more than just embark on a spiritual discipline for Lent as it
integrates spirituality with physical exercise," says Boyd Duncan, a
member of Emmanuel, Hampton who has participated in the program.
