Who, from a scientific perspective, could possibly accept the idea of a virgin birth, or any of Christ's miracles, much less his death and resurrection? Only a child, or a Christian possessed of a considerable degree of discernment.
This enthralling book reveals how we may develop from childhood innocence to spiritual maturity, via a series of psychological stages, through constant (but often unconscious) communication with the Holy Spirit.
Growth will most often occur through adversity and the emotional healing that accompanies acceptance of God's Will. Such experiences encourage the letting go of juvenile attachments and aversions, so we are free to live with increasing spontaneity 'in the moment' - wiser, and more compassionately attuned to the sufferings of others.
