In the 1999 Sunderland P. Gardner lecture, Jack Ross describes his inspiring, life-long spiritual journey which led him to misery and transcendent joy in maximum security prisons as part of his non-violent witness to the power of truth. In the tradition of Friends reaching back over three hundred years, Jack shows how an experience of nature, political action, and a commitment to nonviolence, when combined with spiritual discipline, can lead people into shining moments that illuminate even the grimmest of lives.
