About
Dare to imagine a new birth from deep within Christianity, a fresh stirring of the Spirit. In the midst of dramatic changes in Western Christianity, internationally respected spiritual leader, peacemaker and scholar John Philip Newell offers the hope of a fresh stirring of the Spirit among us. He invites us to be part of a new holy birth of sacred living. Speaking directly to the heart of Christians-those within the well-defined bounds of Christian practice and those on the disenchanted edges-as well as to the faithful and seekers of other traditions, he explores eight major features of a new birthing of Christianity: • Coming back into relationship with the Earth as sacred • Reconnecting with compassion as the ground of true relationship • Celebrating the Light that is at the heart of all life • Reverencing the wisdom of other religious traditions • Rediscovering spiritual practice as the basis for transformation • Living the way of nonviolence among nations • Looking to the unconscious as the wellspring of new vision • Following love as the seed-force of new birth in our lives and world.
