Thomas Merton: His Life, Teachings, and Practices offers an exploration of Merton as a monk, as a writer, and as a man. Author Jon M. Sweeney delves into Merton's life and ideas with an appreciation for his work and a deep understanding of the spiritual depth that it contains. Thomas Merton offers a unique view of Merton, braiding together his thoughts and practices with the reality of his life to create a full portrait of this pivotal figure. The Merton revealed in its pages is a source of inspiration and insight for those wrestling with questions of faith and spirituality. At its core, the book is about the search for wholeness-a search Merton undertook himself throughout his lifetime and one readers can also embark on as they draw inspiration and guidance from his life"-- |
