Statistics show that over 80% of North Americans have experienced an encounter with an undeniably strong spiritual force. So why do we hear so little about these 'soul affairs' -- profound moments of love, dramatic insight, happiness, or rapture? Paul Hawker weaves religious experiences of mystics and saints with modern day accounts and shows that while these soul affairs are expressed differently by context of culture, custom, or language, we have all sensed something very similar.
