Shownotes Transcript
Nathan welcomes Mark Buchanan to the podcast to discuss the wonderfully “reliable” spiritual practice of walking, which is the topic of Mark’s newest book, God Walk: Moving at the Speed of Your Soul.
Show Notes
**[1:17] **I’m curious, how long have you been a speed walker?
**[2:09] **What has your experience and practice been with walking?
[3:58] What did you learn from writing the book?
[5:48] What happens for you when you walk?
[7:58] A friend of mine gave me a quote: Those who work with their mind rest with their hands; those who work with their hands rest with their mind. I think of walking a little like I do silence—that it’s reliable.
[9:34] When you use the phrase “God speed,” what do you mean by that?
[16:08] What was your favorite chapter?
[22:06] What do you hope for people reading your book?
[23:03] You start the book referencing a friend of yours who is not able to walk. Could you give a word for people who are not able-bodied…?
[25:12] Are there other things you have learned from your indigenous friends?
[27:47] Any pilgrimages you have done or would like to do?
