Description
We are created in the image and likeness of God, but how often do we think about that? What does it really mean, in terms of our day-to-day lives and in our search for the divine? Rev. Ron Rolheiser takes you on a three-part journey through the scriptures, Gospels and the writing of theologians and scholars to describe the “struggles inherent in our Blessedness”, how it can be a source of perpetual disquiet and restlessness, and finally, how to live with the “Divine Fire” inside of us. As always, Fr. Rolheiser’s charm, humor, and scholarship make this presentation a memorable one for all those seeking a greater depth and understanding of their faith.

Later on in life, we struggle to give our deaths away. This journey, the final stage of our lives, is what mystics call “the dark night of the spirit”.
