One River, Many Wells Summary

One River, Many Wells: Wisdom Springing from Global Faiths by Matthew Fox

'One River, Many Wells' is an indispensable resource for today's millions of believers who seek a faith and religious vision that go beyond the restriction of dogma and denomination. With scholarly vigour and clear devotion, Matthew Fox draws upon ideas and passages from all the great religions and traditions as well as modern science. He distils masterfully the first principles of world faith and reveals exactly how the different fingers of faith are joined in a single hand. The wide-ranging quotations and lessons that run throughout the book are themselves a prodigious resource and reference of world spirituality even as they show how each faith expresses a common goal and approach to life. They help us to understand and embrace the common faith of deep ecumenism and trace the line of connection, the shared ideals and the celebratory magic at the centre of all the world's spiritualities. 'As you read this text, you reflect, you pray, you embrace Divinity. Truly no words can fully express my respect for this magnificent contribution to contemporary spirituality' - Caroline Myss author of 'Anatomy of the Spirit' and 'Why People Don't Heal' Other books by Matthew Fox Sins of the Spirit, Blessings of the Flesh.
