Suppose there is something going on in the universe which is to
ordinary, everyday reality as our unconcious is to our daily lives?
Softly, but unmistakably guiding it. Most of the time, we are
unaware of it. Yet, every now and then, on account of some fluke,
we are startled by the results of its presence. We realize we have
been part of something with neither consciousness nor consent. It
is so sweet and then it is gone. You say, But I don t believe in
God. And I ask, What makes you think it matters to God?" from
Lawrence Kushner, whose previous books have opened up new
spiritual possibilities, now tells us stories in a new literary
form.
Through his everyday encounters with family, friends, colleagues
and strangers, Kushner takes us deeply into our lives, finding
flashes of spiritual insight in the process. Such otherwise
ordinary moments as fighting with his children, shopping for
bargain basement clothes, or just watching a movie are revealed to
be touchstones for the sacred.
This is a book where literature meets spirituality, where the
sacred meets the ordinary, and, above all, where people of all
faiths, all backgrounds can meet one another and themselves.
Kushner ties together the stories of our lives into a roadmap
showing how everything ordinary is supercharged with meaning if we
can just see it.
