you've got hills of galilee during the jesus walk. you also see rivers a lot.e sacrificing to the river god in nigeria. they want to get us out of the pew, of the home, of the dining room and get us back into nature. one of the powers of a pilgrimage is that people have gone on the journey before you.ç sometimes it's thousands of years. there is i think a power that comes from walking on a walk that has been ground into the stones, into the dirt, into the path and just the act of putting your own feet on that path helpç keep it alive. i'm in western nigeria, the heart of the yoruban people. dance are direct pathways that connect the physical world with the godly one. >> this has been my way to encounter who i am supposed to be, to make sure the path of destiny that i walk on is the path that i'm supposed to be on. >> in some ways the pilgrimage never really culminates until you go back home, until you find out what lessons you have taken from the place that will change how you live back at home and ultimately, i think that's why people do it. to me the most pow
