n Sins of the Spirit, Blessings of the Flesh, visionary theologian and best-jLselling author Matthew Fox offers a new theology that fundamentally changes the traditional perception of good and evil and points the way to a more enlightened treatment of ourselves, one another, and all of nature.

He shows how, contrary to mainstream church teachings, flesh is the grounding of spirit, and how spirit and flesh are entwined with each other in a felicitous and spiritually nourishing bond.
The text crackles with his intelligence and wit, deftly moving the reader into an examination of our world and our perceptions about it and ourselves, expands ing our minds and showing us paths of thought that you would swear were not there before you turned the page. , ^ v
