Description: |
In Graced Horizons, Bishop Leahy explores the many facets of mercy as illustrated not only in scripture, but in the writings and ‘concrete deeds’ of luminaries through the entire course of Christian history. This book offers an enlightening analysis of this core Christian value, as first evinced in the early Church – under the aegis of figures such as St John Chrysostom and Gregory the Great – then down through the centuries to the present day. Graced Horizons highlights the merciful example set by several Christian writers and visionaries, including the medieval mystics Julian of Norwich and Meister Eckhart, Catherine McAuley, Edith Stein, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and many more.
By honing in on the experiences of Christians who have espoused mercy, often in the most testing of circumstances, Graced Horizons will encourage readers into adopting qualities of forbearance, compassion and gratitude each and every day on their own journey with Christ. |
