Aaron Kheriaty MD - Böcker

Thebest-selling author of The Catholic Guide to Depression delves into asimple prayer that offers the paradoxical secret to happiness.Christians who are undergoing great pain, whether physicalor mental, know to turn to God. In doing so, they typically ask that theirsuffering be removed, or at least that it be explained. But that’s the wrongapproach, explains the renowned psychiatrist Aaron Kheriaty. Instead, we shouldask Christ to teach us His suffering, where we encounter the depths ofHis love and find liberation from our afflictions.In this groundbreaking book of Christian spirituality,Kheriaty takes readers into the heart of the simple prayer Doce me passionemTuam—“Teach me Your suffering.” Drawing from his own clinical experience,the lives of the saints, the teachings of recent popes, and the tradition of the Church, he shows that byshifting our focus from demanding answers for our pain to entering Christ’s ownagony, this prayer draws us into God’s love and offers authentic freedom.Written for anyone who wishes not only to overcome sufferingbut also to grow in his or her spiritual life, Teach Me Your Suffering’smeditations on the Eucharist, the Holy Family, and Christ’s Passion will showreaders how and where God’s love is fully revealed—and how and where humananguish finds meaning.
