Welcome

Picture
Welcome to the world of Edward Hays, a contemporary writer of a collection of books of incarnational and ecumenical spirituality.
These books explore experiencing
the Presence of the Divine Mystery
in the midst of our world.

His age-odometer having already sped past 80, his friends were surprised upon hearing that he has begun this website, especially since he doesn’t even use e-mail!

His non-use of this most popular technology, Hays says, is his firewall to protect his solitude and serenity.

May you find nourishment for
your soul and joy for your spirit
within these pages.

The Haystack is a regularly updated blog that offers Haysian haphazard thoughts on the invisible and visible mysteries of life.

He also hopes these meditations
