Our Lenten small group read and discussed this during Lent this year. It’s a great book for a group - readable, provocative yet nuanced. Short, too! One gift I carry away: that my primary orientation should be towards listening. That God is eternal newness who speaks in silence. We need to cultivate this silence AND community. Without community we get trapped on our heads, essentially. We learn love in silence and in community. Together. ( )
