Anyone who had their corporate coming-of-age during the "e;live-for-success/look-out-for-number-one"e; heyday of the 70s and 80s will nostalgically delight and find renewal of spirit in this book by a onetime Yuppie "e;reclaimed"e; by her Lord. Like many of her generation who found themselves caught up in consumerist values and careerist lifestyles, the author experienced a sense of estrangement from her own soul...sparking a search for "e;redemption"e; that will touch the heart of the most jaded worldling. A spiritual adventure with a cosmopolitan twist, Godyssey seeks to help the spiritually disenfranchised rediscover that Lord whose gentle "e;wooing"e; they still sense within some recess of the soul, and to recover those Christian ideals they had lost touch with in their pursuit of success. By presenting Christ as a kind of "e;mentor"e; in the art of successful living, this book provides much-needed shepherding to those left spiritually stranded by their immersion in America's recent corporate and cultural milieu.
