I and Thou
While I am at it — paying attention to my blog, I mean — I am adding this reflective piece on Martin Buber’s philosophical-theological-psychological classic, I and Thou. But a big caveat should be noted here, because just like the book I reflect on, my own thoughts may not be easy to read.
Nevertheless, I add it to this site because it records one of the most important formative moments in my own understanding of the essence and practice of true Christian sprituality. Maybe you will gain as much as I have from reading Buber. Maybe not. But at least you will know something of what has shaped my thinking.

I have been reading Lewis’ "Till We Have Faces" at regular intervals for close to 5 years now, and I think I finally caught some of what he was getting at with my last reading. But I shall have to live with it for a couple more readings just to be certain. So perhaps if I pick up Buber now, we will be able to discuss it in 2020?:)
