the holy longing

by Ronald Rolheiser

I wanted to really like this book, but I could only sort-of like it. The premise is that we all have a crazy and wild fire inside of us; what we do with that fire is our spirituality. The rest of the book is all about what we should do with the fire.

I love the premise! The rest of the book I found myself never fully trusting. There were parts that I underlined; there were parts I rolled my eyes at. I'm glad I read it, but I wish the author had done something different with his premise.
