Taking Jesus Seriously by John Cowan
Buddhist Meditation for Christians
Thank you for Taking Jesus SeriouslyIts practical teaching on meditation is superb. It reminded me of a lot that I had forgotten, and helped me understand some things I'd never understood, and taught me a good deal I never knew.The Reverend Paul Bayes, National Mission & Evangelism Adviser, Archbishops' Council, England
In this world of attractions and delusions, we are blessed when someone finds a way to help us to see ourselves clearly, to learn to be content with who we are, and to be open to new perceptions. Here is the Jesus who encountered life in all its fullness and welcomes us in. John Cowan, with his years of experience in both Eastern and Western forms of meditation, offers a guide for the traveler and a bridge between traditions.Rt. Rev. James Jelinek, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Minnesota
Cowan's work contributes a perspective of radical Christianity to the growing number of books dealing with the interaction of Buddhism and Christianity. . . . This book could help some Christians get beyond preconceptions about Buddhism and Jesus.Publishers Weekly
