Publisher's Synopsis
"Boykin unfalteringly reflects on her secular background and deep life–questions and engages two religious traditions while maintaining the integrity of each. As we follow her through simple spiritual practices, we breathe a sigh of release to find that freedom, transformation, and meaning are available to us where we are and as we are, from the ground of our own experience."
The Reverend Susan Henry–Crowe, Dean of the Chapel and Religious Life, Emory University
"Challenging, informative, inspiring, stimulating, useful, and a good read! Christians will find her responses to many of their questions and also encouraging affirmation to overcome any hesitations. Non–Christians may be surprised at the parallels and possibilities for dialogue and collaboration. It is a unique, significant contribution to literature on Zen."
Janet Jinne Richardson, Roshi, Spiritual Director and Teacher, Zen Community of Baltimore / Clare Sangha
"This book is truly a find! It is a concise presentation of Zen Buddhist practice and philosophy to interested Christians. It is told in a clear yet personal fashion. At last, something that makes Zen easy to understand!"
Rose Annette Liddell, director of the Thomas Merton Center for Creative Exchange, Denver, Colorado
