À propos de l'auteur

Brother Lawrence was a lay Carmelite monk in 17th century Paris. He was assigned to work in the monastery kitchen where he reflected upon making the most mundane tasks holy and later shared his philosophy that man could honor God through his daily thoughts and actions. Matthew Fox is a spiritual theologian, Episcopal priest and an activist for gender justice and eco-justice. He has written 37 books, including Original Blessing, The Coming of the Cosmic Christ, and Sheer Joy. He teaches workshops and leads retreats worldwide and lives in Vallejo, California.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

"Believe me, count as lost each day you have not used in loving God."
Brother Lawrence was a simple French Carmelite lay brother who achieved profound intimacy with God through mundane activities. He taught that the highest communion with God is not reserved for extraordinary moments but permeates the very core of our most ordinary days. Spending much of his time in the kitchen of a Paris monastery, Brother Lawrence learned that our daily activities could be acts of worship, engaging in opportunities to "practice the presence of God" by thinking about and loving God.
This practice can transform our lives and help us find peace and joy in the midst of chaos. It can help us connect with God more deeply and allow us to live our lives with more love and compassion. Featuring a foreword by Matthew Fox, author of Sheer Joy, this timeless spiritual treasure continues to illuminate the hearts of many who yearn for the comfort of the divine presence in a hectic modern world.
