In the Spirit of Happiness Summary
|
The Monks of New Skete believe human beings were created to be happy, and that the elements of a monk's life -- self-discipline, prayer, acts of love and forgiveness -- are the pathways anyone can follow to achieve true happiness. Taking us inside a contemporary American monastic community, In the Spirit of Happiness shares the monks' continuing quest for spiritual fulfillment and offers fresh insights into improving relationships with other people as well as new ways of connecting to the divine.
"Who of us in our search for the Holy has not envied the monk and the spiritual world of maonasticism? In this book envy is overcome by gratitude as we are taken into the world of the Holy by these very worldly monks: worldly in that they understand that God's world and God's way are meant for us to know and enjoy. I recommend this book to all thoughtful and needy pilgrims." PETER J. GOMES, HARVARD UNIVERSITY, PLUMMER PROFESSOR OF CHRISTIAN MORALS, AUTHOR OF THE GOOD BOOK: READING THE BIBLE WITH MIND AND HEART
