From thetearsofthings.com: “For more than 50 years, Franciscan Friar Richard Rohr has illuminated the spiritual path with his teachings on incarnational mysticism, nondual consciousness and contemplation—always with a deep commitment to transforming the world through love and justice. In his first major work since ‘The Universal Christ,’ he offers a wholehearted and hope-filled model for the world today, grounded in the timeless wisdom of the Hebrew prophets. Drawing from his own journey through anger, sadness and into love, Rohr offers a deeply personal and universal message. Seamlessly weaving ancient wisdom with modern insight, this book invites readers to integrate action and contemplation in a vibrant and compassionate tradition of contemplative Christianity.”
