Product ReviewsThe Holy Longing : Guidelines for a Christian Spirituality by Ronald Rolheiser (1999, Hardcover)

Learning a full Chirstian spirituality for the every day disciple

Father Ronald Rolheiser describes a full Christian experience to live out our spiritual pursuits. A young Christian will find a roadmap to experience God and our relationships to each other in many paths to a wide horizon. A mature Christian, especially with significant life experiences over age 40, will be able to relive our own experiences in light of this overall map. Father encourages us with rich examples and life studies that draw his into deeper relationship with God and our brothers and sisters who are daily living beings of God incarnate - as Jesus was God incarnate in time and space.

Catholic doctrine is evident within broader Christian living. It can be read at a steady pace in its plain and inspiring style. I read it carefully to absorb the material so as to explain concepts in meaningful ways to share with others. A must read for all those serious about their Christian spirituality in every day life as a disciple of Christ.Read full review...

If you're looking for The Holy Spirit, you'll surely find Him in this book.

This book was recommended to me while I was an RCIA sponsor. I've just begun reading it, but already I've learned more than I imagined I could have learned about the Holy Spirit. It's one of those books you dont want to put down until it's done. There's so much great insight and knowledged anyone can see as a great resource to one's spiritual journey.Read full review...

Great

I was seeking some answers to modern day spirituality in a world that seemed to promote anything but that. This book profoundly answered many of my questions and more. It was an excellent read!

Best book on Spirituality!

This is the best book on spirituality that I have read - and I'm 64 years old! I bought several copies to give as gifts.
