Summary: | “As I thought and read about these things and wanted to know more about prayer and meditation and how all this related to the rest of my life, I talked with my minister. … With the minister's help, I sought out a person. … [and] I was thrilled when the spiritual director turned out to be a nun.

She told me to go look at a tree.” |
