"Sheldon Clark conveys an understanding of scripture and of matters spiritual. His gift for composition illuminates Logos for the Journey by using historical Quaker references.

Sheldon’s reflections demand some intense concentration. He challenges one to delve into one’s own soul.

This collection of quotations, stories, and prayers is not a quick read. It is, however, a thoughtful journey to be undertaken with an open and receptive heart, and afterward to be pondered with appreciation.

Enter the quiet capsule of your mind and peer into the darkness for the faint light ahead, to ever-increasing brightness.

The scriptures, prayers, and stories we travel are for each to make part of their personal passage, being universal in appeal. Sheldon’s work expands the horizon of our collective imagination to our beginning and ending in the Divine Spirit.

It is a thought-provoking collage/collection of poetry, imagery, and teachings from the ages and the world. It must have been a challenge to assemble.

Logos for the Journey deserves to be in the hands of every Quaker. Thank you.

Beware! In the manner of the monastic practice of Lectio Devina, readers may experience the presence of the Holy One and be drawn to act as the Holy Spirit leads. Gratitude to Sheldon H.

Clark for this helpful compendium for daily living. " ---Paul R.
