In the late 1970s, Jerry Wennstrom was a rising star in the New York art world when he decided that the ultimate creative leap was to destroy his large body of work, give away all his possessions, and spend the next ten years wandering, seeking, and listening. Wennstrom tells the extraordinary story of his daring exploration into the source of his creativity, of a life lived by the singular requirement of Grace to remain fearlessly attuned to the heart.

At the age of twenty-nine, Jerry Wennstrom changed the course of his life in a way that brought answers to life's "big" questions and more. He was a successful New York City artist when he began to sense that something much larger and more important was stirring, waiting to emerge in his life. What he discovered was a path to understanding and wholeness that brings the ancient teachings into the context of our modern world.
