The Full Series
The Lord watches over your coming and going both now and forevermore.
Psalm 121:8
Eighteen letters, written one each morning between August 1 and August 18, 2026, in the days before I walked the Camino de Santiago. Camino history, a real scripture study, and a question I had to answer honestly before I could ask you to. You do not need a plane ticket for any of it.
