- Summary:
- "This book is meant to offer life-giving hope. Its intent is to keep such hope alive... My stake, my interest, here is in finding nourishment for life and in offering that nourishment to others who are also searching for oases in the desert of these days. I invite readers into this terrain of questions and explorations. This is not a journey to a final destination where all will be revealed. Rather it is an attempt to map a territory, so that we all may better find our way."
