Young spiritual leaders are beginning to remove the reasons why so
many of us have kept religion at arm's length. "Spiritual sagacity
does not belong only to seniors like Mother Teresa and Dorothy Day,
Martin Buber and Abraham Joshua Heschel, the veteran Desmond Tutu
and the aging Dalai Lama. Let's hear from a generation that is
marked by new experiences." —from the Preface by Martin E. Marty
By transforming our faith traditions in light of today's increasing
diversity, the search for community, the Internet and our changing
lifestyles, these young, visionary spiritual leaders are helping to
create the new spirituality. Ten contributors, most in their
mid-thirties, span the spectrum of religious
traditions—Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, Unitarian,
Buddhist—and offer their "visions," bold spiritual manifestos,
for transforming our faith communities and our lives. Hear how one
Catholic priest proclaims "all religion and spirituality ought to
be zesty, passionate, rich and deep"; how one rabbi serves a
"congregation" on the web for Microsoft and rides in squad cars on
drug busts in New York City; how a self-described "Zen priest" is
serving an Episcopal church in Alaska; and how a talented young
woman lives her "wild and precious life" changing the world as a
nun. These stories, and others, will challenge your assumptions
about what religion is—and isn't.
