Making a Pilgrimage
This is the best book ever you need it!
A book of Hope!
In Opening the Holy Door, scripture teacher and veteran tour guide Joan Watson examines sixteen panels of the jubilee Holy Door at St. Peter’s Basilica, guiding readers to pray and reflect upon the deeper meaning of these images by contemplating them through the lens of Scripture. With a unique combination of an attentive gaze and imaginative prayer, Watson guides you to experience, panel by panel, each image as a focal point in the Scripture narratives. Whether you’re preparing for a visit to the Holy Door or embarking on an armchair pilgrimage from home, these reflections provide a meaningful way to celebrate the Year of Hope.
This book is more than a guide for the jubilee year; it’s a spiritual companion for anyone seeking answers and hope in a fractured world.
“Like a superhero, Joan Watson arrives just in time—to help us make the most of the Jubilee Year, a grace created especially for you and me and our generation. God wants us to understand this grace and correspond to it.
He wants us to bring our family and friends along with us.
This book shows us how. This book is powerful.”
