I know of no one else . . . who could write with such profundity about such a range of subjects such as Anne Griffiths the Welsh hymn writer, Celtic spirituality, Eastern orthodox theology, and the Danish theologian N. F. S. Grundtvig. In doing so, he was able to expound their importance and insights to those who belonged to those traditions, enabling them to appreciate them afresh through his eyes."" --Most Rev. Barry Morgan, Archbishop of Wales ""Keller has managed to gather between the covers of his excellent book the spirit of Donald's warm humanity and rich spirituality, best seen in his writings and in the contributions of his wide and valued circle of friends. We and the church owe him a great debt of gratitude."" --Esther De Waal, historian, author, lecturer David Keller is an Adjunct Professor of Ascetical Theology at The General Theological Seminary in New York and Director of the Contemplative Ministry Project.
