Mystics, Misfits, and Mountain Dwellers at the First Church of the Higher Elevations

Peter Anderson

We're seeking world healing in a different way today, for Spirit In Action. Our guest is Peter Anderson - author, mystic, misfit, & mountain dweller. His recent books have included First Church of the Higher Elevations: Mountains, Prayer, and Presence, and most recently, Riding the Wheel: Prose-Poems. From his youth on Long Island, NY, Peter wandered to the western US mountains, finding his self in the high elevations. Peter's quest for roots and meaning are a deep example of one valuable way to find a deep & enduring sense of home, even more so in our world today. Peter Anderson joins us from Crestone, CO.

Past/present religious/spiritual influences: Episcopalian, Eastern Religions, Transcendental Meditation, Yoga, Richard Rohr, Quaker, Native American
