Seeking the Radical Middle

In all of the current talk about spirituality, we soon realize that carefulness and clarity are required. It turns out that spirituality isn’t enough, that spirituality merely names a condition. It turns out that spirituality requires a true center from which to work, a definition to give shape and meaning. If spirituality is hunger, truth [...]

Christmas 2010
