Book Description
We all know how seemingly simple, ordinary words can illuminate-or obscure-what we're thinking, how we're feeling, what we mean. In God's Dictionary, Susan Corso returns words to their roots to uncover the soul of their meanings. Drawing upon the world's sacred wisdom traditions, Corso shows readers how a deeper understanding of the words they so often take for granted can powerfully benefit their lives. Adore, imagine, gentle, obey-she plumbs the etymologies of these important, everyday words to reveal their deeper, hidden meanings. Herein lie the sacred definitions that Webster's simply cannot supply. Beautifully designed and profoundly inspiring, God's Dictionaryis a blessing for users of the English language.
