This book looks at how the use of story can capture and embody our spiritual experiences, whether human or divine. It is a collection of meditations on how God initiates all experiences and how we respond to God’s initiative through our relationship with the Divine One. The stories challenge us to reflect more deeply on how we encounter the Spirit in our religious traditions as well as in the personal experiences of our lives.
