About this audiobook
For over fifteen years, writer Jeff Crosby has been searching for a language of the soul-a way to articulate our deepest longings. Through the years he gathered clues from within global music styles, from different cultures, from his own Christian tradition and its sacred texts-and from deep within himself.
A lover of words, he sought not only to translate our longings into words but to understand why these seemingly universal yearnings have long remained unnamed. Now, in this book, Crosby gifts us with those so-often-untranslatable desires of our hearts, guiding us to finally find the words and luminous insights for our own longings for home, for friendship, for forgiveness, and for transformation-and how God meets us in the midst of these longings. Eschewing easy answers, Crosby begins the naming process, helping us to make connections-and to recognize, within ourselves and our faith, our heart's true home.
