A Quaker mystic and social activist, Rufus Jones was awarded a Nobel Prize as co-founder of the American Friends Service Committee. Widely considered one of the most significant religious voices in America at the time of his death in 1948, his writings impart an Emersonian vision of the ever-present reality of God in our souls and in our world. Indeed, his quintessentially American "affirmative mysticism" infuses all contemporary spirituality and offers an uplifting, positive, and powerful message today.

This review is from: Rufus Jones: Essential Writings (Modern Spiritual Masters Series) (Paperback)
This is truly a great book, which has appeal across denominational divides, the most important lessons Jones imparts to us is that God speaks to us in the mundane and routine mysticism of our everyday lives.
