Kenneth Leech emphasizes the centrality of the Incarnation and reveals the other aspects of Christian spirituality, the dangers of a new fascism, and the need for a renewal of Christian theology.

    Vast in scope, rich in insight and eminently readable. Worship This is a book about the God, the many splendored God, to whom the human community journeys. It's pages offer sage direction...for anyone who wants to improve the quality of his or her life as a pilgrim...Experiencing God may well become a major pastoral contribution to the formation of a biblically and theologically sound contemporary theology. New Catholic World Succeeds admirably in what it sets out to do; to introduce lay Christians, in a way that engages them personally, to the rich resources which the Christian tradition offers those who seek a practical path for approaching God. Those unaquainted with that tradition will find it most helpful; but spiritual directors will also find here a useful, readable resource for enriching their personal lives and ministry. - Theological Studies A landmark.

    In 1977, Kenneth Leech's book Soul Friend quickly became one of the classic contemporary explorations of the Christian practice of spiritual direction. Out of print for many years, a revised edition of this book, mildly updated to include changes in the spiritual climate since 1977, is now available.Leech's scholarly, yet accessible, exploration examines the climate in which spiritual direction takes place today -- the influence of the drug culture of the 1960's, Eastern influences on prayer and spiritual practice, the Pentecostal movement, and others. He then provides background on the history of spiritual direction, both Protestant and Catholic, from the earliest Church through the twentieth century. Leech also explores other questions of interest to directors and those seeking out direction: the relationship between counseling and direction; the practice of prayer in Christian spiritual tradition; and the prophetic role of the spiritual director, not just for the individual but for the larger society. An excellent course book, and a fascinating book for those contemplating direction, Soul Friend will continue to be a classic for years to come.

    Race does not exist. Yet in this extraordinary book Ken Leech exposes how racism grips the imaginations of Christian and non-Christian alike, shaping our relations with one another and having disastrous results not only in neighborhoods but in foreign policies. Pauline-like, Leech helps us see that race is a power all the more perverse because it is not acknowledged as such. In conversation with the best work in science, social theory, and theology, Leech challenges the presumption that we have somehow gotten beyond racialized thinking. Moreover, drawing on his extraordinary pastoral experience, he helps us see a way beyond race. This book should be read in both England and America as both countries, in quite different ways continue to be dominated by racialized practice.
