About this ebook
In Talking to Trees: A Journey into Soul, Brian E Pearson chronicles his exploration of the soulful terrain on the far side of conventional religion. Written with candour and humour, this intimate memoir begins within the church, where, as an Anglican priest, the author suspects that, beyond the creeds and rituals, there looms a larger life. His curiosity eventually leads him out the church doors and into a world filled with wonder, where talking to trees, communing with the dead, and getting to know one’s spirit guide becomes the new normal.
From wilderness vision quests, to conversations with Wiccans, to the inner battle to redefine what faith means to him, the author offers a captivating record of his journey of discovery. Talking to Trees: A Journey into Soul reflects the search for a new spirituality for our times. It’s a gentle yet compelling invitation to “faithful seekers” to examine their beliefs, push past the boundaries of tradition, and embrace a more personal, Soul-centred spirituality.
