The desert, with its great emptiness and silence, has long been a symbol of solitude. In our spiritual lives, we sometimes seek such isolation as a means of abandoning ourselves completely to God. At other times, solitude comes upon us uninvited and unwelcome, as we find ourselves totally alone and desolate. In facing the silence and the vast expanses of loneliness, we test our courage, deepen our faith, and hear the voice of God anew.This book explores the tradition and relevance of desert spirituality in the life and worship of the church today and offers a collection of pertinent writings by these and many other ancient and contemporary authors: Thomas Kempis, Mother Mark Clare, Henri Nouwen, Ren Voillaume, Charles de Foucauld, Thomas Merton, R. S. Thomas.The readings are ideal Lenten devotionals (but wonderful any other time of year as well) as you answer your own call of the desert.
