Episode 15: Following a Winding Spiritual Path with John Hamilton and "Honest to God"

Spiritual But Not Religious

Edit: I was unhappy with the original version uploaded, so I uploaded a new version at 5:30 p.m. CST on Wednesday, December 18, 2024.
This is a review of John Hamilton's memoir titled Honest to God. I found much to relate to in John's life story, even as his path through life took some major twists and turns.

The narrative of the book alternates between past and present and weaves a masterful tale of personal and spiritual transformation. Odd-numbered chapters trace John's evolution from his 1980s rock career through his successful stint as an ad executive, culminating in his 2002 pastoral calling. Even-numbered chapters chronicle his final days as a pastor, interweaving tender memories of his life as the spiritual leader of First Congregational Church in Norwood, Massachusetts. Throughout his life, John's wisdom grows with every triumph and tribulation.
