About
Paul Speaks is a jailhouse paraphrase of the so-called "captivity letters" written by St. Paul the Apostle while in prison: II Timothy, Philippians, Colossians, Philemon, and Ephesians. This edition includes a Lectio Divina study guide as well as an essay by the author entitled "What is Spiritual Practice and Who Needs It?" The primary aim of this book is helping the reader move through the stages of spiritual awareness, from beliefism and skepticism on to mysticism. Quote from the book: "We all have a deceptive intelligence and a receptive intelligence. The key to awakening spiritually is to recognize this dynamic, then to do the work. 'Doing the work' means having a daily spiritual practice. This is "the chopping of the wood and carrying of the water" which is necessary to let go of the false-self."
