Steven Charleston has been a favorite among APTB book club readers so we welcome him again into our Spirituality Book Club selections.
In The Four Vision Quests of Jesus, he beautifully connects Native American tradition and spirituality with Christianity. He views four experiences of Jesus as presented in Matthew’s Gospel - his 40 days in the wilderness, the Transfiguration, his prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane and Jesus’ death on the cross - through the lens of the Native American vision quests, a ritual of particular importance in the Native American indigenous communities, and helps us see how closely the Native Covenant is aligned with the Hebrew Covenant and Christianity. Join us as Steven guides us more deeply into Native American theology and helps us explore the key concept of interrelatedness to all of Creation
