Summary:
With his trademark exploration of the meaning of "adult faith" in an age marked by new understandings of cosmology, anthropology, quantum physics, and evolution, O'Murchu here also includes reflections on his own spiritual journey, offering an understanding of the Christian message that retains its power precisely by showing how it taps into deep archetypal and symbolic meaning.
