| Description: |
This volume aims keeping the memory of Basil Hume alive. Gertrude Feick, herself belonging to the same Benedictine tradition,through the use of personal interviews, archival sources, published and unpublished works, allows the authentic voice of Basil Hume to be heard loud and clear.
Hume's Benedictine spirituality and his personal dedication to prayer gave him the ability to relate to other pilgrims who seek God. Hume, the monk, pastor, and preacher, still speaks to contemporary Benedictines, the wider Church, and the world.
Even though, as Hume stated, 'In our public life we move further and further away from God and the things of God', he added, 'in the hearts of men and women I believe that the yearning for God is becoming more and more intense'. That yearning, as the author demonstrates, was at the core of Basil Hume's search for God, for Hume, the way of a pilgrim: "Life in our monastic setting is a search for God with and in Christ for the Father. It is a pilgrim way." |
