Editorial Reviews

Here are thirteen Catholics who believe in the Incarnation. They find God in the midst of the hustle and bustle of daily life—not away from or in spite of it. The monks and the mystics have been at spiritual reflection for centuries. Now it is time for the rest of us to speak up.
