With silence increasingly becoming a stranger to us, one man set out to become its intimate: Pablo d'Ors, a Catholic priest whose life was changed by Zen meditation. With disarming honesty and directness, as well as a striking clarity of language, d'Ors shares his struggles as a beginning meditator: the tedium, restlessness, and distraction. But, persevering, the author discovers not only a deep peace and understanding of his true nature, but also that silence, rather than being a retreat from life, offers us an intense engagement with life just as it is.

Lulled to insincerity by religion and the emptiness of routine, this letter reminds listeners of the life and power that should accompany following Christ.

In order to walk in His way, we must love as He loves us and let His fruit mold us into His image.

What happened during the decades the Gospels never mention? Between the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem and his emergence at the Jordan River lies a vast silence. No record of his childhood. No explanation of how a carpenter's son became the most influential figure in human history. The Missing Years fills that silence—a year-by-year account of the formative life no one recorded. Here is the boy who lost his father at fourteen and became head of a large family. The young man who turned down a fortune and a marriage proposal to stay true to his mission.

Jesus’ preaching was first and foremost about simple living, pacifism, and vegetarianism; he never intended to create a new religion separate from Judaism. Moreover, Jesus’ radical Jewish ethics, rather than a new theology, distinguished him and his followers from other Jews. It was the earliest followers of Jesus, the Jewish Christians, who understood Jesus better than any of the gentile Christian groups, which are the spiritual ancestors of modern Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox churches.

My hope and prayer for you, as the reader, is that by reading these stories, the Bible will come to life for you and that you will know that YOU are not defined by your past mistakes and you already have everything you need to accomplish what He is calling you to.

We are at another crossroads now and Universe is calling us to participate.

C. Grayling, Britain's most popular philosopher, has created a secular bible.
