Returning to Eden by Heather Hamilton
"Wherever I open Returning to Eden, I find wisdom, insight, and love! It is indeed a good 'Field Guide'! May this book do much good in the world."-Fr. Richard Rohr
"Powerful and perfectly timed for the turbulent moment in which we all find ourselves."
-The Joseph Campbell Foundation
"Heather Hamilton makes a case for a bold recovery of spiritual reading."
-David Bentley Hart
Do you resonate with aspects of Christianity, but struggle with the coherence of its claims? After having a mystical experience that upended her traditional evangelical beliefs, Heather Hamilton reluctantly found herself in this place. Her seeking led to the most unexpected insights. Returning to Eden is a field guide for the journey that every true spiritual seeker ultimately takes. The highest truths that set us free are hidden in places that most people are not looking.
Returning to Eden reexamines the Bible stories of childhood and opens them up as symbolic maps into the inner world. Stories like Jonah and the Whale, the Parting of the Red Sea, Noah's Ark, and the Virgin Birth are illuminated with penetrating depth and intellectual integrity. Faith is no longer a white-knuckled grip on implausible beliefs, but a relaxation into a deep inner knowing.
You may be surprised to find yourself reinvigorated and enlightened by stories you thought you knew inside and out. Returning to Eden has the potential to cultivate a renaissance of wonder and curiosity for anyone from the most seasoned Christians to the most committed atheists, and everyone in between.
