A Fragile Hope: Cultivating a Hermitage of the Heart

by Charles R. Ringma

We are living in challenging times. And it is easy to escape, pine for the "good old days," or unrealistically dream our way into the future. Instead, we are invited, in this book, to face our troubled world, to identify our inner struggles of faith, and to voice our anxieties and pain. And most importantly we are invited to wrestle with the God who so often seems absent. Living with a fragile hope, we are called by the gospel to nurture an inner life that responds with faith and courage to the brokenness of our world and the woundedness of our inner being.

This is definitely a book I’ll revisit more slowly in order to reflect on it’s message in day-to-day life in the process of building up a contemplative/activist life - learning to carry a hermitage in the heart.
