Walking Life

The loss of walking as an individual and a community act has the potential to destroy our deepest spiritual connections, our democratic society, our neighborhoods, and our freedom. But we can change the course of our mobility. And we need to. Delving into a wealth of science, history, and anecdote, from our deepest origins as hominins to our first steps as babies, to universal design and social infrastructure, A Walking Life shows exactly how walking is essential, and how deeply reliant our brains and bodies are on this simple pedestrian act - and how we can reclaim it.

The Gospels, and especially the Gospel of Mark, provide illustrations for Christian believers who face the everyday issues of life: conflict, doubt, hostility, urgent needs, and betrayal among many others.

In this volume, Mark described Jesus' ministry around the Sea of Galilee, starting at Capernaum, traveling across the sea to Gergesa, and back to Capernaum. Jesus and his disciples were caught in a violent storm as they sailed across the sea. Once they reached the shore, they met a man who had been driven from society and lived among the tombs. The evil spirits cast out of the poor tomb-dwelling man spooked a huge herd of pigs that ran into the sea and drowned. The pig owners and other neighbors were angry, and they urged Jesus to leave their area.

This volume begins with an exploration of the various positions people took when Jesus restored a man who had been living naked and tormented in the tombs on a Gadarean hillside. The cleansed and restored man wanted to join Jesus’ company of followers, but Jesus told him to go home and share the good news of what God had done for him with his own family. In another chapter, as Jesus returned to Capernaum, a woman suffering from a long-standing illness thought that if she touched his garment, she would be healed. The significance of that little word “if” in life cannot be underestimated.
