Description: |
Drawing on church tradition, teaching of recent papal documents, and scholarly resources of the time Merton (as novice master at the Cistercian Abbey of Gethsemani, 1955-1965) reveals the central importance of the Scriptures for spiritual growth.
For Merton, at the heart of any meaningful reading of the Scriptures for all Christians is the invitation to respond with the whole self, to recognize the gospel as as a saving, liberating, consoling, challenging word, reflecting his fundamental belief that "the Holy Spirit enlightens us, in our reading, to see how our own lives are part of these great mysteries—how we are one with Jesus in them." |
