Searching for Your Soul: Writers of Many Faiths Share Their Personal Stories of Spiritual Discovery

by Katherine Kurs (Editor)

"Spiritual genius emerges from every facet of God's diamond. All faith traditions share His light, brought forth most beautifully in this lovely volume."
-- Marianne Williamson, author of   A Return to Reflections on the Principles of a Course in Miracles

"The spiritual life is often a journey and a process rather than a state of bliss.  We might learn more about this essential part of life through honest and spunky stories like the ones told here than from books of guidance and doctrine.  This book will instruct your spiritual imagination, and that is what inspires and sustains the work of the soul."        
-- Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul and The Soul of Sex


Searching for Your Soul brings together the stories of more than fifty writers who have eloquently explored the spiritual impulses that inform their lives.  Whether Jewish or Hindu, Muslim or Roman Catholic, Methodist or Mormon, Buddhist or Pagan, Vodou or Jehovah's Witness, the rich experiences shared here offer a compelling glimpse into the uneven terrain that is often part of the spiritual journey.

Individual stories from a wide variety of spiritual traditions - interesting read

I really like books about spiritual discovery. I also really like the idea that I could someday teach a class on spiritual discovery writing as the editor of this compliation did. I'm facinated by the diversity of these stories, and yet the similarity of the themes.....

Skipped a lot of this. Not really a book for me.
