About the Book
|
Whether in the worshiping community of faith or in the individual’s personal meditation, it is the transcendent mystery of God—the Alpha and the Omega—that energizes the spiritual life. This Divine Mystery is the love that moves the stars and planets on their way. It is the love that is infatuated with humankind, in spite of our devastating sinfulness.
But how does one hold in tension the Mystery of the Divine and the Church’s social agenda of caring for the world? Especially a world in which pedestrian values often obscure the Holy?
The meditations in this collection, preached to God’s people by the author, offer comfort and hope to world-weary pilgrims. They embrace our loneliness. They show us how to be not just caring people in the world, but sustained, soul-wise, and centered in the profound mystery.
