To Everything a Season: A Spirituality of Time (Thurston)
The clock seems to rule our lives as we search frantically for some precious down time. According to Bonnie Thurston, Professor of New Testament at the Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, it doesn't have to be this way. "We are free to reshape our times, to be transformed by God's grace, and to live differently." The author shows how Christian monasticism teaches us to live in the present moment. She believes that the church's liturgical year enables us to experience all time as God's time.
