The Holy Longing

Ronald Rolheiser makes sense of what is frequently a misunderstood word: spirituality. In posing the question "What is spirituality?" Father Rolheiser gets quickly to the heart of common difficulties with spirituality and shows through compelling anecdotes and personal example how to channel that restlessness, that deep desire, into a healthy spirituality. Rolheiser explains the nonnegotiables - the importance of community worship, the imperatives surrounding social action, the centrality of the Incarnation, the sustenance of spiritual life - and how spirituality necessarily impacts every aspect of human experience. At the core of this deeply readable, deeply revealing book is an explanation of God and the Church in a world that more often than not doubts the credibility of both.
