    [synopsis] => Young spiritual leaders are beginning to                 remove the reasons why

 so many of us have kept religion at                 arm's length.           
	"Spiritual sagacity does not belong only to                 seniors like Mother Teresa and Dorothy Day, Martin Buber and                 Abraham Joshua Heschel, the veteran Desmond Tutu and the aging                 Dalai Lama. Let's hear from a generation that is marked by new                 experiences."

-from the Preface by Martin E. Marty
	By transforming our faith traditions in                 light of today's increasing diversity, the search for                 community, the Internet and our changing lifestyles, these                 young, visionary spiritual leaders are helping to create the                 new spirituality. 
	Ten contributors, most in their                 mid-thirties, span the spectrum of religious                 traditions-Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, Unitarian,                 Buddhist-and offer their "visions," bold                 spiritual manifestos, for transforming our faith communities                 and our lives. 
	Hear how one Catholic priest proclaims                 "all religion and spirituality ought to be zesty,                 passionate, rich and deep"; how one rabbi serves a                 "congregation" on the web for Microsoft and rides in                 squad cars on drug busts in New York City; how a self-described                 "Zen priest" is serving an Episcopal church in                 Alaska; and how a talented young woman lives her "wild and                 precious life" changing the world as a nun. 
	These stories, and others, will challenge your assumptions about what religion is-and isn't.
