Longing for the Holy
Looking for a way to keep your parish's RENEW groups,
small faith-sharing communities thriving and focused on authentic Christian spirituality?

Longing for the Holy is for those who want to enrich their sense of
the presence of God. Based on the gentle spiritual guidance and
practical wisdom of best-selling author, Fr. Ronald Rolheiser, OMI,
it concerns the way we channel the deep longing at the core of
our beings.

Designed for either a small group faith-sharing experience or
personal reflection, participants explore the implications of the
central mysteries of faith-- the Incarnation, the Eucharist, and
the Paschal Mystery -- for spirituality. Attending to the cultural
challenges that keep us from realizing our true desire, it considers
the important themes of church community, justice, sexuality, the
practices of the spiritual life, and being a mystic of the everyday.

By using Longing for the Holy as a spiritual renewal resource for


your parish or small group, participants will:
  • Consider how to actively and knowingly live in the presence of
    God and respond to the needs of God's people
  • Explore different dimensions of contemporary spiritual life brought to life through the lives of saints

  • Reflect on the cultural challenges that keep up from realizing our true desire -- our longing for
