Publisher Notes
Practical guidance on dealing with the daily challenges facing every spiritual seeker....[W]ritten for those who seriously seek a significant relationship with God, "Thoughts Matter" explores the thought of the early Christian desert tradition exemplified in the writing of John Cassian (b.356), and especially his major work, "Conferences and Institutes".
Excerpt
To renounce one's thoughts may seem out-of-date to a casual observer--harsh, foreboding, even unrelenting. A mind at peace, stilled, available for conscious thinking at will is of major value for those of us who confront chaos, confusion, noise, and numbness as we move into the third millennium.
