What is the world's story about?
​
"I believe that there is one story in the world, and only one...
​
Humans are caught–in their lives, in their thoughts, in their hungers and ambitions, in their avarice and cruelty, and in their kindness and generosity too–in a net of good and evil...
​
There is no other story. A man, after he has brushed off the dust and chips of his life, will have left only the hard, clean questions: Was it good or was it evil? Have I dont well–or ill?"
​
John Steinbeck
Pursue a path of holiness by reading a good book
Some are blessed to go on pilgrimage to holy sites to encounter God, deepen their faith, and build fellowship. Might one experience these same fruits journeying as a literary pilgrim? We believe the answer is a resounding “Yes!”
Join fellow pilgrims as we travel the pages of East of Eden by John Steinbeck. We read classic literature as Catholics through a biblical lens—reflecting on characters and passages that touch our hearts and help us better know, love and serve Christ and each other.
