Book excerpt: In this concise volume the world-renowned spiritual master Anselm Grun invites readers to understand the twofold nature of midlife: on the one hand it is associated with a variety of problems or crises. On the other, it provides powerful opportunities for spiritual growth. This challenge--which is an inevitable work of God's grace--is an invitation into the fullness of our vocation. Anselm Grun brings together ancient and modern thought, including the spirituality of the medieval mystic Johannis Tauler and the psychology of Carl Jung, in order to foster greater self-understanding during midlife.
