Everything Belongs
The Gift of Contemplative Prayer

Fr. Richard Rohr OFM

"The belief that God is out there, is the basic dualism that is tearing us all apart. That's why we have raped the earth, why we have such poor understanding of our bodies, our economy, and our health. That's why we live such distraught and divided lives. "

From the Jacket

Inherent Unmarketability

How do you make attractive that which is not?
How do you sell emptiness, vaulnerability, and nonsuccess?
How do you talk descent when everything is about ascent?
How can you possibly market letting-go in a capitalist culture?
How do you present Jesus to a Promethean mind?
How do you talk about dying to a church trying to appear perfect?

This is not going to work.
(Admitting this might be my first step.)
