In The Deep Place of the Spirit

I read Sam Keen’s book Hymns To An Unknown God about ten years ago and it is still among my favorite books to draw inspiration from:  

“Road-weary, overwhelmed by the magnitude of the difficulties we face during our brief days, we are tempted to despair or to settle for cheap optimism. But in the deep place of the spirit, we are moved and called forth to undertake this ongoing adventure by the yearning, restless and creative One who – though called by the ten thousand names of God – is still clothed in marvelous silence.” – Sam Keen: Hymns To An Unknown God

Daily Inspiration: The Quest

“I have come to believe that “the quest” is a metaphor for the willingness to live and wrestle with the perennial questions that underlie the mythic answers that religion offers. My “question” is the “quest I’m on.” – Sam Keen, Hymns to an Unknown God: Awakening The Spirit In Everyday Life.
