On the Threshold of Transformation: Daily Meditations for Men
Deep, personal pain is very real for men. So is the power to transform it. In the opening meditations of this book, male spirituality expert Richard Rohr writes, "We need to fall, to fail, to jump into the central mystery of our own existence, or we'll have no way of finding our true path."
