“The Christian of the future will be a mystic or she/he will be nothing at all.” – Karl Rahner
The Jesuit Center at Wernersville is hosting a weekend study on this topic by Keith Egan in Novemeber.
“The hunger for God can only be satisfied by a love that is face to face, person to person. It is only in the eyes of another that we can find the Icon of Christ. We must make the other person aware we love him. If we do, he will know that God loves him. He will never hunger again.”
