Book details
Overview
Priest, philosopher, poet, person—Michael Parker's theological and spiritual reflections stir us to regard the human journey of joys and sorrows, disappointments and hopes as a pilgrimage in faith, hope and love, the adventure of discovering deeper communication and communion with others and God. From the wonder of a December snowfall to the agony of a friend's betrayal; from the grace of marriage and baptism to the mystery of communion; from meditations on time challenging an openness to change to musings on the variegated manifestations of light, his verses unfold a path towards appreciating the human/divine qualitative richness in living.
