The Naked Now
Summary
The enlightenment you seek in other religions has been present in Christianity from the beginning. Richard Rohr, a global leader in spiritual awakening, helps you recognize the forces (such as ego resistance and dual thinking) that separate you from your deeper self. Then, drawing from Gospels and the greatest Christian contemplatives, he shows you what it means to be spiritually awake. You will learn why your ego resists change and growth, what is useful about popular ideas such as the law of attraction, what Jesus, the first mythical leader in the West, can teach you, and how you can enhance spiritual awareness without sacrificing reason.

Awakening
Read Richard Rohr before, but this book is a succulent summary of all his teachings, poetic and didactic at the same time. It reads like a riddle yet offers clarity. Thanks

Everything I've been feeling lately
I'm in RCIA right now to get confirmed in spring of 2020. This book put into words a lot of what I've been feeling lately, and gave me a renewed sense if hope and faith for the future. I know I'll come back to it again again to further develop my spiritual insight and strategies for deepening my relationship with God.

Much needed wisdom
I always struggle with living in the now and this was a very helpful book. I will keep it and listen to it more and hopefully put it in practice in my everyday life.
