Walking With Saint James

31 Meditations for Pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago

For the last thousand years, pilgrims have journeyed through Spain on the Camino de Santiago, a 500-mile pilgrimage to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Legend holds that James, the Apostle of Jesus, rests in a crypt beneath the old cathedral.

In this vital, sacred, inspiring travelogue, Zebulun Mattos sets out on a spiritual and cultural odyssey that offers contemplative prayers, quiet inspiration, and lasting hope. Each devotional includes glimpses of the pilgrim's journey, tales of knights and nobles, historical anecdotes, and depictions of ecology and anthropology encountered along the way.

This is where your pilgrimage begins.

  • "Zebulun's storytelling makes you feel like you're walking the Camino de Santiago on a sacred journey yourself."

    - Noulezhalie Ricky Medom

  • "Zebulun has an uncanny ability to weave in the cultural aspects of the journey along with the more important spiritual aspects of Saint James’ walk with the Lord, as well as our own journey with Christ."

    - Gary Stache, Pastor
