Description
What is a monastery? A monastery is a place set apart—a place to learn the blessings of powerlessness, and that time is not ours but God’s. Our home and our duties can, just like a monastery, teach us those things. The vocation of monastic men and women is to physically withdraw from the world. But the principle is equally valid for those of us who cannot go off to monasteries. Certain vocations offer the same kind of opportunity for contemplation and provide a desert for reflection.

The Shattered Lantern
Read moreThe Shattered Lantern
A hundred years ago, Nietzche had his mystical madman smash a lantern in the marketplace and announce to Western Culture that “God is dead!”. Few people took him seriously. Today, we would. Faith, if not shattered, is shaken by cultural values.
The Shatterd Lantern drew from a variety of stories and experiences to offer a spiritual antidote. The author suggests that, “The way back to a lively faith is not a question of finding the right answers, but living in a certain way.” The existence of God, like the air we breathe, need not be proven. It is a question of developing good lungs to meet it correctly.
Ronald Rolheiser shines a new light on the contemplative path of Western Christianity. He offers a way back home.
