Vital Source: Diary of an Urban Contemplative

Journal, meditation, prayer guide - the book is a Christian contemplative's response to the grace of each day. Part autobiography, part contemplation, wholly present, it follows a three month period of spiritual development in the life of an urban contemplative and poet, moving from immediate reflections on prayer and meditation to autobiographical narrative in an everyday urban environment. It's a book for the seeker, the sharer, the quiet witness to God's presence in a life. Poetically written, the book is a call to mindfulness through the act of writing. It is personal, devotional, inspirational, bringing the reader's attention to the immediate effects of contemplative prayer on the body and soul of an ordinary mystic.
