I think of prayer as a spiritual lifeline back to where I most want to be.

To me, when I think of New Age, I think of crystals and rainbows and platitudes.

Certainly there is such a thing as chemical depression, and for that, obviously, there are issues that psychotherapists are much more expert at speaking to, but I think there is a low-grade depression that actually prevails in our society. And most of us feel it.

The spiritual path - is simply the journey of living our lives. Everyone is on a spiritual path; most people just don't know it.

Prayer enables us to transform the world, because it transforms us.

Through prayer we find what we cannot find elsewhere: a peace that is not of this world.
