Soaring in the Spirit: Rediscovering Mystery in the Christian Life
Overview
This is a book about experiencing the presence of Jesus Christ in the moment by moment 'nows' of daily life. The first task of theology is to locate our place in the story. Like finding directions at a shopping mall with the brightly colored words, 'You are here', the author invites us into an encounter with the 'We are here' place in God's great story. The claim of this book is that the experience of Christ's presence in the 'right here' of our daily walk, Christian soaring is the birthright of every follower of Jesus Christ. This is a thoughtful, stirring, and groundbreaking book on the neglected topic of Christian soaring through discerning discipleship.
Conniry's marvelous book...is a gift to us all.

As you read this book, see if you don't feel as well as hear the serene roaring of the "soaring" of a soul at full stretch.
