Gift quality. For many people, the faith they grew up with loses its meaning during adolescence. Others who never had any faith in childhood begin exploring religion for the first time in adolescence or young adulthood. I've come to realize that there are identifiable stages of spiritual development that people go through, no matter what their religious tradition is or isn't. Just as we grow emotionally and intellectually over the years, so we grow spiritually, if we allow ourselves. The author was the inspiration for Doonesbury's Reverend Scot Sloan and in this book he offers an indispensable guidebook to those seeking a new spiritual path or wishing to reconnect to the religion of their youth. He reassures anyone at a spiritual crossroads--those who have become disillusioned with or even abandoned the religion of their youth--that finding a relevant and fulfilling spirituality is a process of understanding one's place in any of six universal stages of faith: Magic, Reality, Dependence, Independence, Interdependence, and Unity. He offers signposts and checklists for determining where readers are on their own spiritual journey, and for helping them grow and develop. By recognizing a progression of steps toward a faith of one's own choosing, McLennan explains, one can more fully open one's soul to its spiritual destiny. Contents: Introduction by Garry Trudeau, The Mountain Beckons, Opening, Thinking, Experiencing, Walking, Joining, Crossing, Sitting, Suffering, Rejoicing, and Conclusion. Plus Appendix A: Reading for the Next Steps on Your Path Appendix B: Contacts for the Next Steps on Your Path, and Notes.
