CPR for the soul : reviving a sense of the sacred in everyday life

"The fact that you are not dead is not sufficient proof that you are alive!" So begins Tom Stellas latest exploration into the life, death, and rebirth of the soul.

In CPR for the Soul: Reviving a Sense of the Sacred, Stella shares the deep, eternal wisdom that knows the lines separating the sacred and the secular, time and eternity, humanity and divinity, are false. Or, at the very least, blurred. God, by whatever name, is found in the midst of everyday life, work, and relationships.

All people, all creation, and all of life is holy ground.

Divided into 13 sections, this collection of over 100 short reflections speaks to the countless people young and old, male and female, churchgoers and church avoiders for whom lifes demands and stress have caused them to lose touch with their soul, the "still point," to use the words of Dag Hammarskjold, "surrounded by silence." This book offers a revival for the soul, a reminder that "we are one with something vast" a "something" that "is not a thing or a person, but a spiritual source and force at the heart of life."
