Cynthia Bourgeault is a masterful guide to Jesus's vision and to the traditional contemplative practices you can use to experience the heart of his teachings for yourself.

Cynthia Bourgeault does both, and does them very well!" —Richard Rohr, OFM, author of Everything Belongs: The Gift of Contemplative Prayer

"Bourgeault centers her expansive house of wisdom in the sayings and extraordinary death of the gospel Jesus as she turns light and darkness into a living poetry of self-emptying vision." —Willis Barnstone, author of The Other Bible, coauthor of The Gnostic Bible
