This challenging book, narrated by a Catholic, explains the intersections of Buddhism and Christian theology, acknowledging the differences and shows great reverence to both traditions. Although some parts were above my head in rhetoric and theology terms I am not versed in, I found much to think about and it deepened my own faith. I know it is a book I will revisit numerous times.
