“Matthew Fox is the greatest living Christian Mystic Theologian and this book a feast of visionary wisdom. Read it and cherish it and give it to all your friends.” ―Andrew Harvey, author The Hope: A Guide to Sacred Activism

“What a brilliant and exciting combination of creative words and evocative images. And where they take us is where we must go! We need a Christ at least as large as the universe we inhabit and much larger than the tribal religion most of us were born into. Allow yourself to be happily led there.” ―Richard Rohr,O.F.M., Center for Action and Contemplation, Albuquerque, New Mexico "Stations of the Cosmic Christ is a wonderful book. It’s a journey to a profound awareness of what Christ, and what love, really mean." – Marianne Williamson, NYT Bestselling Author, Return to Love, A Year of Miracles

“Stations of the Cosmic Christ is a divinely inspired book that must be read by every human being devoted to spiritual and global survival. It is cosmically brilliant.” ―Caroline Myss, Author of Anatomy of the Spirit and Defy Gravity

“This visionary book sheds startling new light on the possibility of mystic awakening for Christians -- as well as other seekers -- eager to discover and practice a faith for the 21st century. Matthew Fox may be our greatest living spiritual reformer. Brave, brilliant, and truly unique.” ―Mark Matousek, author of Ethical Wisdom: The Search For A Moral Life
“In this creative work, the authors offer concrete entry points into a set of reflective spiritual practices for those called to move into an expansive understanding of the person of Jesus Christ today. Through imaginative encounters that go beyond a traditional focus on Christ’s passion and death, and which honor the radical freedom offered by his life and teaching, the Stations in this book provide a rich space for meditation. The beauty and strength of the art that focuses the practices presented here, the generous interfaith sensibilities of the authors, and the ways that they weave together the Scriptural accounts of Jesus, the great liturgical actions and feasts, and the concerns of contemporary people, make this book a precious gift to those seeking to cultivate a cosmic sense of the living presence of Christ.” ―Susanna Singer, PhD, spiritual director and professor at the Church Divinity School of the Pacific, Berkeley, CA
