The Path of Silence Nancy Fennell

Our soul-deep desire to be in close relationship with God is often thwarted by equally deep fears of being in such a relationship. In simple and direct writing, Fennell discusses the most direct path to awareness of Divine Presence, a path open to all people, regardless of their faith path or life's experiences. Doubts about God's love for us, difficulties in trusting God, and fears of what will be asked of us are handled with understanding and compassion. Fennell holds that it is not possible to deepen our spirituality for our own benefit alone. Rather, in accepting God's love, we will be led to pass it on, to breathe "the breath of Life' into all our dealings with others: our family, our work, our communities, and our world. The human condition, now as always, desperately need people who adopt peaceful, thoughtful, kind and compassionate ways of being.
