Publisher's Description
How do we come together when things around us are falling apart? What is the best way forward when we are faced with political turmoil, a global pandemic, civil unrest, and spiritual wandering? Rediscovering the Spirit is an exploration of the critical spiritual principles we need to understand and embrace in our current social reality. The book focuses on the nature of the inward-out movement and how to deal with current social barriers that cause deep division and alienation. We can come together in whole and harmonious ways when we rediscover and activate our spiritual lives through centering, framing, practicing, and learning how to live with others.

“We are living in turbulent times—socially, politically, theologically. How do we stay rooted in our spiritual resources and engage the world with dignity and compassion? Lowell Greathouse draws from the accumulated wisdom of a spiritual leader and a social advocate to guide us. Rediscovering the Spirit helps us keep our soul while striving for the kin-dom of God on Earth.”
“It was with great anticipation that I read Lowell Greathouse’s new book, Rediscovering the Spirit. In our current context of uncertainty, dislocation, and disillusionment, we are desperate for spiritual and emotional anchors that can ground us. Written in the backdrop of COVID-19, worldwide racism, and the continued ecological crisis, Greathouse weaves a spiritual narrative of hope in a world desperate for meaning. This is a must read for all of us!”
“Lowell Greathouse establishes early the spiritual bankruptcy that pervades our society today, and then demonstrates that we have the resources to live lives of spiritual abundance. He lays out the principles and practices available to each of us to recover the spirit and for engaging life with wholeness. I particularly valued the four qualities he lays out, but it might be that my favorite part of the book is the rich poetry he has written.”
