The Chrysalis Story

An anthology of personal stories and perspectives by members of the Chrysais Men's Group at St. Francis in the Foothills United Methodist Church, Tucson, Arizona. The men describe their experiences of growth and transformation in an ongoing community of men committed to practicing the Fourfold Way as delineated by cultural anthropologist Angeles Arrien: showing up and choosing to be present, paying attention to what has heart and meaning, telling the truth without blame or judgment, and being open to outcome, not attached to outcome. An inspiring set of stories, and a blueprint for the formation of other such groups of men, whether religious or secular.
