I have that book. Same cover. I was initially very enthusiastic about it, but became less so as I've learned what Eastern Orthodoxy really is. The book makes some really great points, which I think Christians can benefit from more than Daoists, but also makes some errors, such as the Maryology nonsense. Its an interesting look into syncretism and how religions can speak to each other. Supposedly the Chinese artists who's art is featured all converted... Whether that's a good thing, idk - believing in the Spirit, which is the Way, without reducing it to an image of a man, seems like a more efficient path. The image of Christ can be an idol, and IMO usually is.
