Publisher Comments:
When it was published in 1987, "Letting God was the first book to explore the themes of the Twelve-Step programs within the context of Christian tradition. Now revised to emphasize its spiritual focus, and including an introduction presenting a monthly theme, each daily reading begins with a selection from the New Testament. These are followed by eloquent, thought-provoking meditations that reveal how the passages apply to Christian living today, and conclude with a brief prayer. This inspiring daily devotional strengthens and encourages the reader, providing sustenance for the sould and practical insights on everyday life.
Synopsis:
A thoroughly revised edition of the much-sought-after early work by Terence and Dennis McKenna that looks at shamanism, altered states of consciousness, and the organic unity of the King Wen sequence of the I Ching.
Synopsis:

It may be that some little root of the sacred tree still lives.
Nourish it then, that it may leaf and bloom and fill with singing birds.
--Black Elk
This is a peaceful book of Earth-centered quotes from a variety of sources. Many of very beautiful!
A lot of them refer to a Creator (God, Great Spirit, etc.), so this book is particularly good if that appeals to you. There are also more general, nature-focussed quotes for others of us.
All in all, a lovely little book.
