Dr. Michael Downey: Special thanks to Dr. Downey who served as
professor of theology and spirituality at universities and seminaries
in North America and abroad. He is a recipient of three honorary

Caterina Krai: I thank Caterina for blessing us with her unwavering

Derek Lin: Thanks to Derek, Taoist master and author of the

his friendship and wisdom. His kindness and support for my early
edition of this book amazed me. It is a miracle how God connected
