In these daily reflections, Richard Rohr invites us to rediscover the
spring hidden inside. He reminds us of our inherent belovedness and
God's indwelling presence. Remembering who we truly are is a gradual
lifelong journey, but Fr. Richard offers insights to ease the process
and lead us back to our Source. The meditations follow the arc of life,
from innocence, through inevitable brokenness, to putting ourselves back
together, through ripening into union - with self, God, the world, and
others.
Fr. Richard draws from Scripture, Christian mystics, non-dual teachers
from various faiths, and wisdom from other fields such as psychology,
science, the Enneagram, and the Twelve Steps. He is not teaching new
concepts so much as framing them in a way that resonates with our
intuitive wisdom, the truth that our souls already know.
Each week concludes with a unique invitation to contemplative practice.
Throughout the book, Fr. Richard also calls us to compassionate action.
The spiritual journey is not merely for our own transformation, but for
the healing of the world.
