Publisher's Synopsis
This is a collection of letters written by William Johnston to various friends whilst on sabbatical. All his correspondents are searching for a deeper spiritual experience through dialogue with other religions. Johnston writes from the belief that we are witnessing a new kind of Christian mysticism - a mysticism that appeals to the laity and speaks a a language enlightened by the wisdom of eastern religions. The letters introduce a huge range of Johnston's ideas - characteristics and application of this new mysticism, relationship between marriage and spirituality, guidance on the teachings of both Christianity and Buddhism, to name but a few! With simplicity and warmth he teaches that it is not the great world religions that are the enemy, but atheism. This was originally published in 1991 and is now being repackaged to complement Mystical Theology and Being in Love, to create a smart series look.
