{"product_id":"monks-in-the-world-william-thiele-9781625645401","title":"Monks in the World: Seeking God in a Frantic Culture","description":"Description: In this moving spiritual memoir, Dr. William Thiele shares inspiring stories of the birthing of a monastery without walls among everyday women and men around New Orleans after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Along the way, core contemplative attitudes, practices, and principles were discovered. He offers these stories of birthing a School for Contemplative Living as a challenging call to a frantic and polarized world. Readers will be drawn toward their own spiritual transformation as they encounter imperfect monks with messy lives who are practicing God's presence and learning to serve the world from that presence. He encourages readers to join these monks in the world by forming contemplative communities who radiate loving-kindness as their first priority.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Thiele\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1625645406\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781625645401\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wipf \u0026amp; Stock Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/03\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"William Thiele","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44057069486335,"sku":"9781625645401","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5a9d1944-a7dc-4e51-a887-0b6ca9acb10b.jpg?v=1685044853","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/monks-in-the-world-william-thiele-9781625645401","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
