Review of The Holy Longing





The Holy Longing:  The Search for a Christian Spirituality is a book I have been wanting to read for a long time.  It a deep book and there is a lot to take in and process as you are reading it.  Reading the book can help you develop and discover your own Christian spirituality, and determine what you really believe.  The Holy Longing that Rolheiser describes is really our longing for God and a relationship with God, and Rolheiser focuses on Christ's incarnation as the basic for spirituality, while also focusing on some key aspects of spirituality:  justice and peacemaking, sexuality, ecclesiology, and the paschal mystery.  If you are struggling with some of the hard questions of spirituality, this may be a book to explore.

I received this book for free from Waterbrook in exchange for my honest opinion.
