The Bible presents a landscape rich with characters whose stories
and prophecies, wisdom and woes, parables and prayers describe our
very human struggle to know and respond to the love of God.
Repeated reading and retelling make these texts familiar, and yet
we encounter them anew in these fresh, intimate, and sometimes
startling reflections by master storyteller Genevieve Glen, OSB.
Sr. Genevieve writes with a vivid and poetic imagination. Drawing
on her life of monastic prayer and the practice of Lectio Divina-a
life saturated in Scripture-she pulls us deeply into these stories.
Sauntering through this holy ground with her we enter small
villages and busy towns, sheepfolds and gardens, a nomad's tent and
a rich man's house, a stable in Bethlehem and the great temple in
Jerusalem. Most of all we encounter the transforming message and
mercy of God in Jesus Christ.
