Synopsis

What if you sense there is more to life—but you don’t want someone else telling you what to believe?

For Kira Higgs, the question began early: How can we actually know there’s such a thing as God, beyond taking it on faith?

She set the question aside, built a successful professional life, formed relationships, made mistakes, changed direction, and kept going. But the question never entirely disappeared.

Winnowing: A Memoir of Spiritual Longing in Secular Life shares what unfolded when spiritual inquiry gradually became part of an otherwise ordinary life.

Through intimate stories of career, friendship, loss, love, meditation, and unexpected experiences that stretched her understanding of reality, Higgs explores what it means to take immeasurable experiences seriously without abandoning discernment.

Meditation becomes a laboratory rather than a prescription. Encounters with divine presences are duly noted rather than embellished. Friends expose blind spots she would rather not see. Identities she worked hard to build fall away. And change arrives less through dramatic breakthroughs than through small pivots accumulated over years.

Higgs offers no doctrine and no path to follow. As if in dialog, she lays out what happened to her—with candor, curiosity, humor, and a willingness to question her own conclusions.

Readers describe Winnowing as less like spiritual instruction and more like a conversation—one that sends them back into their own memories, questions, relationships, and experiences with fresh eyes.

For meditators, spiritual seekers, skeptics, and anyone who has ever felt a quiet pull toward something they could not quite name, Winnowing offers companionship in the inquiry.

Not answers. A new line of sight.
