In Search of Grace

<p>After years as a Hollywood writer and filmmaker Kristin Hahn felt a crisis of faith: she had no spiritual group she could call her own. Setting out on a three-year journey she began an investigation of America's religious traditions practices and beliefs.</p><p>Crisscrossing the nation Hahn spent a week cloistered in prayer with convent nuns and a month of Ramadan fasting with Muslims. She went door-to-door with young Mormon missionaries and head-to-head with turbaned Sikh yogis. She sat through marathon meditations with Buddhist masters and spent days in conversation and ceremony with an 0jibwe medicine man. Her explorations exposed her to the rich ancient culture of the Jews and brought her into the enclaves of Christian Scientists and Amish farmers as well as the less traditional realms of Scientology neopagan witchcraft and the congregations of new-age gurus.</p><p>And this was only the beginning.</p><p>Openhearted humorous and always thoughtful <em>In Search of Grace</em> offers nourishment for our spiritual hunger -- and a myriad of ways to find a religious home.</p>
