Prevot invites the reader to experience joy as we follow him along paths that are refreshingly, uniquely instructive for learning how multiple traditions of asceticism, mysticism, and seeking justice can bring all the children of God to a true Welcome Table. Inspired by a ‘cloud of witnesses,’ he give us proof that the truly inclusive Communion of Saints can inspire us, every day.”—\u003cb\u003eRev. Joseph A.
