Voices in the Wilderness of Soul

Encounters with the Sacred in Nature and the Human Soul

Behold, I will now allure her, and bring her into the wilderness
and speak tenderly to her -- Hosea 2:14

So I returned to the river, I returned to the mountains,
and I asked for their hand in marriage.
I begged, I begged to wed every object and every creature.
And when they accepted, God was ever present in my arms. -- Meister Eckhert

Jesus in the Manger

For Richard Rohr the question is always "how can we turn information into transformation?" How can we use the sacred texts to lead people into new places with God, with life, with themselves?

The question for us is always "how can we turn information into transformation?" How can we use the sacred texts to lead people into new places with God, with life, with themselves? This is surely true with our Lucan texts on the birth of Jesus. They have largely been sentimentalized in Christmas card fashion. We enjoy such "Christmas cards", yet they don't really change our lives in any substantive way.
