Publisher's Description
If you think that Jesus might have had something significant to say related to the well-being of the human race, this book is for you. If you think that Jesus' purpose was to get people into heaven after they died, this book is not for you. Actually, maybe it is, but you may not like it. Through individual and group encounters and thought-provoking questions, through poetry, prayers, icons, and meditation exercises, this companion for the warrior mystic monk seeks to guide the reader into an encounter with the life force that holds together and flows through all creation. This guide is intended for those who believe that Jesus began something central to the well-being of humanity and all creation, which has become almost lost within the institution of religion. Many who are embracing this emerging spiritual awakening remain within the church. The church continues to be family. At the same time, one's primary spiritual community is made up of those who are seeking awakening whether they are inside or outside of a religious institution.

“‘In case of emergency, break the glass.’ Imagine reaching through the shattered glass and pulling out Encounter A Place Apart. More than simply sounding the alarm of our current crisis, Paul Grout has created a guidebook for coming alive in the midst of a collapsing culture and church. In the understandings, reflections, and meditations of Encounter A Place Apart is the invitation to a new beginning: step apart to a new aliveness, to a whole new humanity.”
