Summary

We search for a system of meaning to make sense of our lives, yet traditional religion too-often leaves those seeking spiritual sustenance unsatisfied. Spitzer goes back to the earliest sources for Judaism and Christianity, and discovers in the Hebrew Bible metaphors of the divine, including Water, Voice, Fire, Rock, Cloud, and the process of Becoming. She addresses how we can access these ancient metaphors to experience holiness in our daily lives and to guide us in challenging times. - adapted from jacket
