Every Thing is Sacred: A New Companion to The Universal Christ
“I learned that ‘mystery’ doesn’t mean that something is unknowable; it merely points to there being endless ways of seeing that same thing.” —Patrick Boland
Many of us feel disconnected from truth, justice and each other in these difficult times. Our hearts long to experience God’s love more deeply in ourselves and the world, but we feel lost, adrift. It’s in those moments that we can choose to embrace the deep beauty of God, even amid the uncertainties of life.
Building upon his New York Times Best Seller The Universal Christ—now available in paperback—Richard Rohr and psychotherapist Patrick Boland offer 40 hope-filled, yet challenging practices to help us embrace the deep beauty of God, even amid the uncertainties of life. Practice what it means to “live in Christ” and see the world through Love’s eyes with Every Thing is Sacred: 40 Practices and Reflections on the Universal Christ.
