Product Description

Humanity meets Sacred Wisdom meets story. A creative nonfiction message in a uniquely fictional setting. Light Beyond the River is an experiential read, and it is deeply contemplative, in the same breath. Join Lyra--nurse by profession and poet by passion--on the Spiritual Formation Odyssey of a lifetime. Newly retired, Lyra goes for a daylong walk to clear her head. She hikes in the woods near her home by the river. There, she meets a motley crew--seven Celtic mystical voices--animals, birds, and a fish--who teach her seven invaluable life lessons. Deeper themes--of becoming--of shining brightly--of encountering the Sacred--are artfully braided, interlaced, and woven. The ending, the coda, is unexpected--twisted. It will most certainly make you think! Come now and live vicariously in Lyra's contemplative life. Immerse yourself in the depths of holy wonderment. Slowly, slowly, enter into every word. Lose yourself--find yourself--on a delightful Celtic Christian journey. Let curiosity drive you, let your faith guide you. May you be opened. May you be awed into the world of fine contemplative literature. Let Light Beyond the River nurture the Sacred in you. Amen.
