This study begins by exploring that theme of mystery hidden yet revealed from the perspective of the interrelationship of transcendence, self-actualization and creative expression. The book goes on to describe the interplay of those three elements in the lives and the works of, Thomas Merton, monk and writer, and Georgia O'Keeffe, artist. People from a wide variety of backgrounds and traditions will find this study a stimulating source of insight for their spiritual quest. Endorsements: What is missing so badly in our current culture is a sensitive, deeply intuitive yet compelling understanding of how meaning and transcendence work and support our ordinary efforts to be the best persons we are called to be. What Dr. Coombs so vividly describes for us, through two very valuable case studies - Thomas Merton and Georgia O'Keeffe - is that we are never alone on this journey. Dr. Michael Rock University of Guelph M.A. and MBA programs Guelph, Ontario, Canada 'Mystery Hidden Yet Revealed' is a dynamically engaging work of art. Coombs weaves the threads of paradox into a tapestry of beauty. Like all art, this work needs to be contemplated over and over. Each line, each paragraph opens new insight and wonder, causing the reader to stand back in awe only to be drawn deeper into the creative process which makes this book unique. Through presenting Merton and O'Keeffe as icons, Coombs helps us experience Mystery unfolding and finding expression throughout their lives and their particular works. This book is a mystical vision of the interrelatedness within all of life. Readers will be captivated by its message and excited about its possibilities. --Jean Springer EREMOS, A center of Contemplative Life www.eremos.org About the Contributor(s): Marie Theresa Coombs lives as a canonically recognized hermit at Lebh Shomea, a contemplative-eremitical house of prayer in the desert region of south Texas.

Consequently, each person wants to do some good, to have a basic receptivity to God, and at times to be alone with God. As life unfolds, God's love also calls forth within a person an overriding attraction toward one of those three orientations, which in due course impels the individual toward a corresponding vocational lifestyle: an apostolic life, a contemplative life, or an eremitic life. In this book, the authors identify the core features of those three vocational lifestyles. In light of each vocational core, they then discuss an ensemble of signs and patterns that point to an authentic calling from God. This study offers wisdom and insight to those pondering the mystery of their personal vocations, to those discerning their vocational direction, and to spiritual directors, formation personnel, ecclesial leadership, and Christian educators who accompany them in their quest.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51034760216849,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51034763198737,"sku":"NIN9781532634239","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52630300066065,"sku":"NLS9781532634239","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1532634234.jpg?v=1751149945"},{"product_id":"discerning-vocations-to-the-apostolic-life-the-contemplative-life-and-the-eremit-book-marie-theresa-coombs-9781532634215","title":"Discerning Vocations to the Apostolic Life, the Contemplative Life, and the Eremitic Life","description":"Throughout the spiritual journey, God's love engenders within every Christian active, contemplative, and solitary inclinations.
