Healing the Divide is a bold call to understand Jesus according to the earliest lineage of Christian Mystics--a call to transform our dualistic minds and heal a divided church. This book is a must read if you find yourself frustrated by the fundamentalist and new age polarization of twenty-first-century Christianity, bewildered by religious pluralism, or searching for Christianity's elusive mystic core.

Reviews for Healing the Divide, Tenth Anniversary Edition: Recovering Christianity's Mystic Roots

"Praise for the First Edition: ""In Healing the Divide, Amos Smith's fresh perspective preserves the integrity of the Christian mystical epicenter from contamination from both the Christian hard right and the sometimes rudderless new age."" --Cynthia Bourgeault, author of The Wisdom Jesus ""This is the most balanced treatment of Jesus I have ever seen. Maybe this book can alleviate the polarizing madness afflicting Western Christianity today."" --Ken Barnes, pastor ""Amos Smith writes about the incarnation with great enthusiasm. His work is commendable!"" --William Meninger, author of Julian of Norwich ""This is the clearest and most accessible treatment of Oriental Orthodox Christology I have seen by a Western author."" --Abba Yohannes, Orthodox monk"
