    #2 IN THE BEAUTY TRILOGY

     

     

    “What kind of creatures are we that we experience hunger not just for physical sustenance, but for beauty? Putting words to this profound cry of his heart, a student of mine once marveled, “I don’t only want to behold the beauty of a sunrise. I want to eat it.”

    — from Chapter 4 of Eating the Sunrise

     

    Move beyond today’s “liturgy wars” to discover the hidden beauty of the Mass. 

    DRAWING EXTENSIVELY from the spousal symbolism of the Scriptures and from the mystical wisdom of the greatest saints of both East and West, these rich but accessible meditations take the reader on a journey from the insatiable hunger of the human heart for lasting beauty, through the pitfalls of both idolizing and despising the things of this world, to arrive at the one and only hope of fulfillment: liturgizing our yearning by opening it to the One who is Infinite Beauty revealed in the body and freely given up for us in the Eucharist.

     

    Along the way you’ll discover that in all the things you’ve always found exciting and attractive, God has been wooing you towards the unimaginable possibility of “eating the sunrise”.
