Synopsis

In our seemingly secular society the quest for spirituality is replacing devotion to organized religion. Yet, for many, this search is unfulfilling, leading from one "new age" fad to the next. Spirituality is not something that can be plucked from the air or gleaned from pages of magazines. It requires commitment in the form of a spiritual practice.
The essays in this collection each present a unique perspective on spiritual practice. The writers come from different philosophical and religious traditions, including Catholicism, Judaism, and Buddhism, and explore spiritual practice that ranges from the mundane to the majestic. Though they approach their subject from differing points, they each offer tangible guidance on finding a way through the maze of modern life.
As we grow older the world becomes an increasingly complicated place, and many people ask themselves how life can be so different from what they remember or expected. In the midst of this confusion and anxiety, Finding A Way offers space for self-exploration as well as fresh perspectives on understanding the world.
Finding A Way is not a self-help book; it does not offer quick-fix solutions. Rather, it is an insightful collection that examines the traditional doorways to a spiritual life and serves as nourishment for the journey.
