Ordinary Heaven: Exploring Spiritual Direction and the Journey of Human Life

Ordinary Heaven is a wholehearted invitation for profound reflection on the gift of spiritual direction. This book honors the wonder of being human, of becoming fully alive in the ordinariness of everyday life, and the discovery of the divine depth of eternity in the present moment. A celebration of our awakening to who we are already and the place we all come from, Philip Carter draws upon over four decades of dedicated spiritual seeking, practice, and study. Generously scaffolded by seminal works of literature from T.S. Eliot to Thomas Merton, this book not only offers insight into spiritual direction in the Christian faith, it lovingly communicates a universal, spiritual experience that heals and connects us all. —- ISBN: 9781950309078 | ISBN10: 195030907X | ISBN-13: 978-1950309078
