Although focused on the fundamental themes of the spiritual life, The God Instinct successfully bridges the spiritual and the practical. Stella is able to ground his insights in the realities of daily living with the wisdom gleaned from his own journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFormerly a priest in the Congregation of Holy Cross, Tom Stella is the cofounder and director of Soul Link, Inc., a nonprofit for spiritual seekers, a spiritual director, and retreat facilitator.
