{"product_id":"hermitage-within-monk-9780879077808","title":"The Hermitage Within: Spirituality of the Desert by a Monk Volume 180","description":"Not everyone can, or should, live as a hermit. Yet all Christians need an inner hermitage, a place apart where we come face-to-face with our true selves, and listen to the still small voice of God. It is a place of silence, of fear and fascination, of anguish and grace. The writer of this profound yet simple volume encourages us to find our own inner hermitage--a place of calm and contemplation, apart from the demands of the modern world, a place so silent that we can hear God. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The desert, the mountain, and the temple provide the focus of the anonymous author's reflections. He meditates on the wilderness experiences of such biblical persons as Jesus, John the Baptist, and Mary Magdalen. He considers the place held in the Christian story by Mount Sinai, the Mount of Olives, and Calvary. He ponders the idea of temples, using such images as our inner temple and Christ the temple, the foundation of the Church.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Neame\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0879077808\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780879077808\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liturgical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/1987\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 0.50d","brand":"Alan Neame","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43986750505215,"sku":"9780879077808","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d129235d-2c83-4b5e-aa02-c97fd2de6986.jpg?v=1683284977","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hermitage-within-monk-9780879077808","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
