Synopsis

We live in a culture that functions at a furious pace and lures us, little by little, into placing our attention outward instead of turning inward where the still, quiet voice of Mystery speaks, sometimes in tones so hushed we fail to notice unless we are standing still. The over-busy world in which we live is not user-friendly to those of us who choose to live lives consciously centered in Spirit. Following the inspirational and often thought-provoking path of her first book, "Embracing the Mystery: the Sacred Unfolding in Ordinary People and Everyday Lives," psychotherapist, interfaith spiritual director, and author Meredith Jordan continues to pursue and examine the many complex and fruitful aspects of the spiritual journey. In "Standing Still: Hearing the Call to a Spirit-Centered Life," she probes those times when we are challenged by life events occasionally even forced to stop everything, wait for our next instructions, and listen quietly as those next steps are made clear. Masterfully weaving spiritual wisdom into the stories of seekers in their everyday lives, Jordan teaches that the Source of All Life is continually generating new opportunities for us to expand and mature spiritually, if we only see that these opportunities most often arrive disguised as our lives.
