Spiritual living

摘要

Spiritual upheaval this autumn finds spiritual authors seemingly in a reactive mode, coming to terms with breaking news and worrisome trends. Some give witness, from widely varying perspectives, to ongoing national and global upheavals, economic, physical, and spiritual alike. Others respond to assaults on organized religion and concepts of a conventional or personal God, and yet another offers a different way out of the believer vs. atheist standoff. Two important books re-evaluate the legacy of Mother Teresa. Finally, not one but two authors bring spirituality down to earth with welcome touches of gracious good humor.
