Evangelical Zen is part Augustine's Confessions and part Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Here Paul Louis Metzger, an Evangelical Christian theologian, reflects on his spiritual journey--an inner pilgrimage of sorts that weaves through a physical forty-day journey with his family to Japan. The experiences of that journey, the beauties of Japan, its culture, and its religion become for him a lens on a deeper quest: here he is searching for and, he believes, finding a global humanity in conversation with the late Zen Buddhist priest Kyogen Carlson, his Buddhist friend. This second edition includes a new foreword by esteemed missionary statesman and scholar, Thomas John Hastings, a new introduction and new concluding essay by the author, and an afterword by the acclaimed Buddhist author, Sallie Jiko Tisdale.
