{"product_id":"compassionate-presence-matthew-lewis-sutton-9781621388685","title":"Compassionate Presence: The Trinitarian Spirituality of Adrienne von Speyr","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the ancient Christian Apostles' Creed, we speak the fourth line that Jesus Christ \"suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he went down to the dead (ad inferno-to hell).\" This mysterious line of Christ's descent to hell generated a deep mystical spirituality in Adrienne von Speyr (d. 1967), a Swiss laywoman, physician, wife, mother, and spiritual writer. Her extensive, speculative mysticism influenced the critical work of the Catholic theologian, Hans Urs von Balthasar, who had a profound influence on Catholic theology in the late twentieth-century, and even today. In this book, Matthew Lewis Sutton offers a profound encounter with Adrienne's mystical encounter with the inner life and intense love of the Trinity. This mystical spirituality of Holy Saturday-the day between Good Friday and Easter Sunday-guides us away from our age of loneliness, isolation, and alienation toward a new restoration of compassion, love, and reconciliation. The ancient Christian doctrine of Christ descended to hell can be a rediscovery of the extreme compassion of God to rescue us back to his compassionate presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Lewis Sutton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1621388689\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781621388685\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Angelico Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/12\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.52d","brand":"Matthew Lewis Sutton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44227709894911,"sku":"9781621388685","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4b270140-f3a6-4d6f-9d1e-2fce1af8e326.jpg?v=1692810173","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/compassionate-presence-matthew-lewis-sutton-9781621388685","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
