"Our world is desperate for a positive vision, a gutsy vision of love that incorporates all of who we are - minds, bodies, and spirits."
Author and spiritual director Jeff Imbach believes there is no better place to search for such a vision than the fourteenth century writings of Julian of Norwich, John Ruusbroec, Meister Eckhart, and Dante Alighieri. In their work, we find a vision of passionate love as the essence of spirituality, a vision that resonates with the contemporary chaos around intimate relationships, our deeply rooted longing for love, and the journey into recovery experienced by so many today. No longer do you have to police, deny, ignore or push aside your passion. Instead, Jeff invites you to reclaim the deepest truth of your passion, to open up your passion until it unlocks its deepest treasure, until it reveals its own eternal Source, its inherent glory.

“"This book is a wise book. Its wisdom is not a borrowed wisdom. It is a wisdom born of the personal struggles of its author, lived in the light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and shaped by the great mystics of the church."
