Foreword by Eugene H. Peterson Countering the generic
"spirituality" so popular today, Edith Humphrey presents an
authentic Christian spirituality that draws on Scripture and the
profound riches of the Christian tradition -- Orthodox, Catholic,
and Protestant. Humphrey shows how Christian spirituality is rooted
in the Trinity, in the ecstasy ("going out" of oneself) and
intimacy (profound closeness with another) marking the relations
between Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The book embodies a banquet
of excerpts from the greatest spiritual writers in history -- such
luminaries as St. Augustine, St. John Chrysostom, Julian of
Norwich, St. Teresa of vila, the Wesley brothers, Thomas Merton,
and Alexander Schmemann. Humphrey's elegant prose, laced with
stories and images from her own life, beautifully uncovers the ways
in which God's trinitarian life informs all human communion. Each
chapter ends with questions for further reflection and discussion.
