How to Inhabit Time: new book releases 9.20.22
I have a new book coming out on September 20 entitled How to Inhabit Time: Understanding the Past, Facing the Future, Living Faithfully Now. I think it sits at the sweet spot between philosophy and spiritual reflection, so I wanted to share news of it with subscribers to the "God and the Philosophers" list.
The book is an exercise in what I might describe as "philosophical counsel" for the spiritual life, specifically focused on the adventure of time and history. As you might expect, the bones of the book are three German philosophers: Hegel, Husserl, and Heidegger.
The book is less of an argument than an invitation to contemplation. To that end, I've also created a suite of 16 contemplative exercises to accompany the book. These are bound in a little FIELD NOTES-y journal with room for reflective journaling.
Those who pre-order the book by 9.19.22 will receive this journal for FREE. Find details at jameskasmith.com.
The publisher is also looking to recruit a launch/review team to help the book's release. Those on the review team will receive advance access to the book, weekly emails from me, and then an invitation to a private Q&A session on Zoom the night before the book's release.
