Description
Book SynopsisFather Thomas Keating was known throughout the world as an exponent, teacher, and writer on contemplative prayer. A Cistercian (Trappist) monk of St. Benedict's Monastery, Snowmass, Colorado, he was a founder of the Centering Prayer Movement and of Contemplative Outreach. He authored numerous books, particularly of the trilogy
Open Mind, Open Heart; Invitation to Love; and
The Mystery of Christ. Among his books is
The Daily Reader for Contemplative Living, compiled by S. Stephanie Iachetta.
Trade Review"The book would be an ideal resource for a liturgy committee or parish scripture study group that might come together to reflect on the liturgical season. What Keating does in this book, ideally, is what every homilist should do also. He weaves together the Scripture proclaimed, the mystery that the liturgy celebrates, and the everyday life of the people assembled. When that weaving is done with a contemplative, sacramental imagination, the mutual presence of Christ and those gathered has the power to transform the world." -Rite -- Kathleen Hope Brown
