<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Haase presents the spiritual journey as a return home, and home is the sacrament of the present moment.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>God is at home. It is we who have gone out for a walk. --Meister Eckhart In <em>Coming Home to Your True Self, </em> Albert Haase invites you to return home--and shows you the way to get there. Home, he writes, is the sacrament of the present moment. It is only living right now, right here, that we discover our lives and this world awash in the grace of God. Using the story of the prodigal son to illustrate the far country of our false self and the way back home to our true self in Christ, Haase introduces us to the spiritual disciplines that can help us find the path home to the Father. Rich with insights from Haase's experience as a spiritual director, this is a book for the weary, the lost, the regretful and guilty--essentially, a book for us all. No matter how long you've walked, God is still home.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'Home is where the heart is' would be a good tag line for this collection of sage, prayerful advice from Franciscan author Haase.</p>--Publishers Weekly, April 21, 2008<br><br><p>Haase very skillfully and with great reader friendliness offers today's Christ followers a lovely, gently presented compilation of ancient spiritual traditions written in contemporary style. Extremely practical and inspirational, readers from all walks and stages in the spiritual walk will find this material refreshing and instructional.</p>--Michele Howe, FaithfulReader.com, July 2008<br><br><p>Haase's book provides a wonderful frame for the spiritual journey, a very helpful summary and collection of wisdom from the Christian tradition, as well as examples from Haase's own spiritual direction practice. Here is a book for the troubled, the lost, the weary, the regretful, the guilty, and the hopeful--all who are longing to come home and to be at home with God, themselves, and others.</p>--Douglas H. Gregg, Presence, December 2008<br><br><p>Highly recommended for anyone who longs for a deeper relationship with God and his/her neighbor.</p>--John B. Shewmaker, Catholic Library World, December 2008<br>
