De fleste af os ved, hvem Jesus var. Ved vi også, hvem Kristus er? Det spørgsmål kan synes underligt for de af os, der altid har fået at vide, at Jesus og Kristus er den samme.Men skal vi gribe den store vision, som oprulles for os i Bibelen, har vi brug for både Jesus og Kristus, og vi må lære at skelne mellem dem: Gud har åbenbaret sig på et bestemt tidspunkt i historien i personen Jesus – Kristus er skabelsens igangsætter og har til alle tider været universets inderste, bærende princip.Kristendommen handler om noget endnu større end at tro på Jesus som Guds søn og verdens frelser. At være ”i Kristus” er at komme til erkendelse af, at verden er beåndet og hellig, og at den guddommelige kærlighed gennemtrænger alt og alle – lige fra det mindste atom til den største galakse.Den universelle Kristus er det gudsnærvær, i hvem vi ”lever, røres og er”. I sin banebrydende bog kalder Richard Rohr os ind i denne underfulde virkelighed og viser, hvordan vi kan blive en aktiv del af den Guds kærlighedsstrøm, der flyder gennem verden.

An update to the bestselling book from Franciscan Father Richard Rohr In the revised and updated edition of Falling Upward, Richard Rohr seeks to help readers come to terms with the two halves of life. In this book, Rohr teaches us that we can't understand the meaning of "up" until we have fallen "down." More importantly, Rohr describes what "up" can look like in the second half of life. Most of us tend to think of the second half of life inchronological terms, but this book proposes a different paradigm. Spiritual maturity is found "when we begin to pay attention and seek integrity" through a shift from our "outer task" to the "inner task." What looks like falling down can be experienced as falling upward--and is not necessarily connected with aging. This new edition focuses on practical guidance that you can use to live a life of love and meaning in a world of suffering and challenge. Falling Upward is an invitation to living the gospel and a call to ongoing transformation. Gain a spiritual perspective on the "the common sequencing, staging, anddirection of life's arc" and learn how to bring forth your gifts in the second half of life Grapple with difficult feelings, fears, and emotions associated with "great love and great suffering" Learn how we "grow spiritually much more by doing it wrong than by doing it right" Understand why so many of us resist falling into the second half of life Readers of Rohr's previous works and those new to the remarkable teachings of this Franciscan priest will find comfort and inspiration in this guide to lifelong spiritual growth.

The ancient story of Job that grapples with the question of why there is suffering in the world even for those who lead a good and upright life has challenged, perplexed, and comforted readers for millennia. Here Richard Rohr shares his understanding of the book, both in its historical setting and as a most important message for today. The book speaks most strongly to those whose own world has fallen apart, but in its essence, it is a call to each reader to let go of old certitudes and goals and to place faith and trust radically in God alone. This book is a spiritual commentary and chapter-by-chapter Scripture study of the many themes that occur throughout the book. In this exploration many questions are raised as much about the reader's own life as Job's, and from this process is promised deeper understanding. In the course of the story, Job witnesses to the reality of pain, but also to gaining a new sense of joy and freedom and restoration of soul.
