In Joyful Journey Herb Dimock shares some of the divine dialogue he has had about the bumbling journey we call our lives.

A Pilgrim's Progress-style allegory, this booklet will give you plenty to think about, as you follow Herb along his spiritual ups, downs, sidetracks, and lostness. It may also inspire you to some dialogue of your own.

Many themes are adddressed in Joyful Journey: God, science, suffering, ego. Herb Dimock deals with these, and with depression, in a heartfelt (even humorous) and philosophical manner. And, like Socrates of old, he finds that philosophy develops itself best in the form of a dialogue.

In Joyful Journey one's ultimate life purpose is portrayed as a "Celestial City". Like that city, philosophy may not be a constructed path toward truth so much as the journeying itself and the exchange we have with our journey's Guide.

EXERPT:

Attention, Herb!

Yeah? What's up?

It's time to start our journey for the day.

But I have some things I need to do first.

So what's new? You said that yesterday.

Yeah, I guess I did. So where do you want us to go today?

The Village.

The Celestial Village?

That's right.

OK. Same destination. What I wanted was to get some of the map work done from yesterday's journey.

That won't be necessary.

But this is to help others who may want to follow. They'll need the map.

A good motive, but...

Also, I've got some things to put in my backpack that will make the journey easier--some extra shoes and socks and...

Herb, leave the baggage behind. You can journey with Us, or go it on your own, It's your choice.
