Beskrivning

2022 Catholic Media Association honorable mention in mysticismOver time our ideas about God and religion tend to match the stage of our own maturity and the level of our own consciousness. In addition to our different ideas of God, there are also those who profess some form of monotheistic religion but worship other gods: the power of the economy, military strength, fame. Perhaps they even use––or misuse––the name of God or credit God with whatever is gained.Thus, the challenge for our times is this: how do we think of God as Jesus introduces God to us? While exploring Scripture, the thoughts of theologians, Benedictine monasticism, Jewish and Islamic traditions, along with his own personal reflections, Cyprian Consiglio, OSB Cam, shows us what it means to be church, to be a follower of Jesus, and to be like God: to imitate the self-emptying of God and Christ. We are called to show the world God as Jesus reveals God to be: merciful, compassionate, healer to all.

"No one has taught me more about faith, calm and clarity in the service of humanity than my old friend Cyprian Consiglio. What a grace it is to have his open-hearted wisdom and his unswayable spirit in the world, teaching us how to live for something larger than self and deeper than dogma."Pico Iyer, author of The Art of Stillness
