Subject(s): Summary: "In his profound and deeply personal new book, New York Times bestselling author Rob Bell explores the endless dynamic questions and connections that have shaped his life to provide powerful insight into understanding your purpose and place in the world. Our home is a universe of endless dynamic connections that never stop inviting us to participate in the great mysterious love at the heart of it all. Everything is Spiritual is a brief history of how these ideas about creation, love, and connection shaped the author--and can shape every one of us. In this book, Rob Bell explores the concept that what people really want, more than anything, is to understand their purpose here--so much so that it gives them an abiding sense of awe and wonder. And when you embrace where and who you come from and your wounds and pains and regrets, you will discover that there's an invitation lurking there in the mess of life: an invitation to expand just like the universe has been doing for 13 billions years. There is a space beyond all the parts and divisions and differences and polarization where you see that it's all one connected whole and it's all rigged in favor of your growth, expansion, and joy"-- Provided by publisher.

Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

"An exciting vision of the future"
--Michael Eric Dyson

Everything Is Spiritual is an unexpected and compelling
invitation to see your life in a whole new way. We
have the great moments of our lives, the highs, those
times when we soar, when it all makes sense, when it feels
like it all has purpose and meaning. And then there are all
those other moments--the lows and aches and failures and
struggles and experiences that leave us wondering what
the point of it all is. Are our lives ultimately bits and pieces
and fragments--you try to find a little peace and hope and
then it's over? Or is there more going on here?

In our increasingly polarized and disoriented world,
Everything Is Spiritual gives us a radical new take on how
it all fits together, how it works, how it's all connected. Part
memoir, part extended riff on the quantum nature of reality,
part history of the universe, Rob Bell takes us back through
the twists and turns and struggles of his story in order to
help us see the larger story so that we can reconnect with
our story.
