Synopsis

Motivation for the Great Work: Forty Meaty Meditations for the Secular-Religious. Weknow we cannot do the great work of care for creation deeply and for long without tending to our spirits. Therefore, this book is about the next step in our human journey: to become less human-centered and more creation-and Spirit-centered. We are here to care for the good creation, including human reconciliation. The meditations are held under five dynamics of profound human living: community, awakenment, formation, engagement, and sustenance. Thomas Berry, author of The Dream of the Earth and The Great Work has written in the foreword:What is needed is closer to the conversion process of the great religious transformations. Such is the benefit of this book of meditations. With its guidance we might begin a new phase of existence . . . with a primacy of appreciation for . . . the natural world. The great work is our common mission and vocation. Let us be refocused and remotivated for the sake of all and, in so doing, our own sakes.
