Description:

Drawing from the Gospels, the writings of Paul, and the teachings of the great Christian contemplatives, Richard Rohr reveals how many of the truths of Christianity have been misunderstood or lost. He shows how to read these writings with the heart of the mystic rather than interpreting them through rational thought. He helps readers to recognize the forces (such as ego resistance and dual thinking) that separate us from our deeper selves, and shows what it means to be spiritually awake. He explores: how to awaken our desire for God, to find freedom from the fears that cripple us, to connect to the joy already within us, to see as the mystics see, and to live in full awareness of the "naked now."
