Resumen del Editor

If you put aside what you think you know about Jesus and approach the Gospels as though for the first time, something remarkable happens: Jesus emerges as a teacher of the transformation of consciousness. Cynthia Bourgeault is a masterful guide to Jesus' vision and to the traditional contemplative practices you can use to experience the heart of his teachings for yourself.

Deeply Needed and Helpful

This was a truly remarkable exploration of the importance of wisdom and the fact of its unfortunate neglect in current Christianity. She does an amazing job of compelling each of us not just to think about it but live into it. Her exploration incorporated her own experiences deep insights into text and theology and more.

The only reason I couldn’t give it five stars across the board, which in many ways I felt it was, is that occasionally she too fell into perhaps a way of saying it could only be this way. Rather than allowing wisdom and other elements of Christianity to sit by side by side there were occasions where she insisted it could only be one way. I am continuing to think and honor that perspective yet not sure it speaks to the fullness of all her claims.

I am grateful for her gift and it will change the way I think about my own faith and about who Jesus is and why he matters. What could be better than that?

Loved it!

Fantastic! The information in this book has been
transformative and so helpful in my spiritual path!

a great boog on the cutting edge of new christiany

Deep Non Dual Jesus

Author is really wonderful and shares deep truths about the spiritual Master from Nazareth. Worth a deep listen for sure. enjoy Jesus.

Every Christian Needs To ReD This!

This book will blow your mind as you explore not only what Jesus’s original intentions had been for His followers but how you can practice these intentions. Keep an open mind, and allow Jesus to flow in and through you. In the words of Martin Luther, “This is most certainly true.”

Open Mind

It’s always better to keep an open mind about historical, religious, political figures. Especially about ones we only see through one lens. Lenses, which have been colored from other perspectives than our own … very interesting perspectives Borgeault brings to the table and those highlights about her observed shortcomings are definitely the leaders that be would do wise to take to heart. Our world is doubling information at break-neck speeds it is just too bad we haven’t grasped the true essence of the metaphysical and the seeds of our physical world. I guess with this knowledge outpouring, we will find it one way or another.
Stay curious …

Finding Wisdom after searching 50 years!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Going to try your technique with my hymn books too! Awesome to elevate from where I have been.

A Beautiful Way of Experiencing the Divine

This is my second time through this book. I’ve read it once and am now listening while I drive.
Having come through a literal fundamentalist faith, this book brought me back to the Love of the Divine and resurrected my faith in a new light. Like a drink of living water.

Loved the book and the narration

Don’t understand why people don’t like the narration but I found it fitting to the book. I did lower the speed just a bit.

Really enjoyed this book

Great perspective that sync up eastern mindfulness with Western Christianity. Unique insights and examples. Recommed.
