About the Contributors

"We have a special place in our hearts for those who have the zest, discipline, and resilience to practice everyday spirituality. Hats off to Erik Walker Wikstrom, the editor of this engaging and creative paperback, who has brought together an unusual group of Unitarian Universalist clergy and lay people to share their passions with us." -- Frederick and Mary Ann Brussart, www.spiritualityandpractice.com.
