So tonight I finally ordered Brian McLaren’s new book ‘Finding Our Way Again: The Return To The Ancient Practices’. I am excited to get this book next week and dig into what is there.

I know McLaren is one of those authors that either you love or hate. The first time I read his book I could not stand his style, but for some reason I gave it another read and it took hold in my brain and helped me view the world differently.

“Most of us suffer from spiritual disorientation. Our souls are intended. And in this fragmented world, a soul left untended quickly loses direction. It forgets itself and becomes an insubstantial thing, disoriented and unavailable to the truth. And neither scientific secularism nor religious fundamentalism nor vague spiritualities have been able to offer any real answers”.

The description from the back of the book is where I am.  I know I won’t get any magical answers (they don’t exist), I just like stepping stones to my next thought to ponder.
