Grace Revisted: Reflections from the Monastery

by James Stephen Behrens, Gregory F.A. Pierce (Editor)

Father James Stephen Behrens was a unique observer of the human condition. His artful writings and intriguing photographs reflect on the significance of the ordinary the sacredness of what comes our way every day and seems to recede from our grasp. His fresh, down-to-earth reflections show how modern monasticism can have a powerful impact on the lives and spirituality of people living far beyond cloister walls. This memorial edition includes all the stories from his two major collections, Grace is Everywhere and Memories of Grace, as well as his seminal essay Andy s Diner and excerpts from his award-winning book of photographs Portraits of Grace.

[Mark Jurgensen · Rating 5 out of 5]

Second time through this book (actually it's two books in one) written by my dear friend in heaven, James Behrens. These essays focus on the sacredness of the ordinary and how we encounter grace in the everyday events of our lives.
