Forgetting Ourselves on Purpose

"Don't be misled by the charm of this genial book. It is as deep as the author's Irish bogs, and as wide as his American prairies. God will admire the energy and efficiency of its God-seeking." --Nuala O'Faolain, author, Are You Somebody? "This engaging book invites us to explore the places where our deep gladness and the world's great hunger might possibly meet. It is about claiming vocation in the spiritual sense of finding a purpose for our lives that is part of the purposes of God. Its special gift lies in helping us examine our personal and cultural inhibitions about claiming our calling. Unique and powerful!" --James W. Fowler, author, Stages of Faith
