"Companions on the Spiritual Path"
with Rev. Elizabeth St. Angelo
and musician James Schattauer


Learning what it is to be true companions to each other; learning how many companions we have; learning to cry for help when we need it; learning that crying for help isn't failing but is part of the cosmic plan - all these things are necessary for the next steps on the spiritual path.
