Dark Night Journey: Inward Re-Patterning Toward a Life Centered in God

0 - Default Title
Description
The dark night aptly describes the situation of those who have had a growing sense of God's presence, direction, and consolation, and are suddenly bereft of that experience. Aridity, meaninglessness, loss, and pain are hardly the milestones expected in a journey toward God--yet this is a journey toward God. The author brings a unique Quaker perspective to her interpretation of this powerful pathway, and offers sensitive guidance to dark night travelers and those who seek to understand and nurture them. "This is an exciting and life affirming book. It is well balance between the practical and the spiritual, speaking heart to heart, not head to head. It provides much wise advice and could be used by friends and meetings with great profit." -John Punshon- "As a Religious to whom others come for guidance, I find this book a godsend which clearly lays out the dark night journey, helps illuminate the way to knowing God's love in the depths of one's being, and helps bring others to that gentle, nurturing love."--Mother Suzanne Elizabeth-- Sandra Cronk is a spiritual nurturer, teacher, and historian of religions. For ten years, she taught Quaker faith and thought, spiritual life studies, and religious community at Pendle Hill, A quaker center for study and contemplation near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In 1990 she became a foundation member of the School of the Spirit, a ministry of contemplative prayer and religious study.
