In What Do We Do With the Bible? this small but hugely important book on how to interpret the Bible, Richard Rohr offers a fresh way of understanding Scripture
Richard Rohr (Author)
FR RICHARD ROHR is a Franciscan priest of the New Mexico Province.
He founded the Center for Action and Contemplation in Albuquerque,
New Mexico in 1986, where he presently serves as Founding Director.
An internationally known speaker, he teaches on such themes as
adult Christian spirituality, men’s spirituality, and politics and
spirituality, and has published many books, including Falling
Upward and Immortal Diamond (SPCK, 2012 and 2013 respectively).
The Universal Christ: Rohr sees the Christ everywhere, and not just
in people. He reminds us that the first incarnation of God is in
Creation itself, and he tells us that "God loves things by becoming
them." Just for that sentence, and there are so many more, I cannot
put this book down.

The Divine Dance s not only Richard Rohr’s best book; it’s the best
book on the Trinity I’ve ever read. Tender, human, both pastorally
and psychologically brilliant, this is the work Rohr was born to do
. . . An instant spiritual classic.

Falling Upward: Understanding the spiritual aspects of aging is as
important as appreciating the systems and biological processes that
age us. Richard Rohr has given us a perfect guide to what he calls
the "further journey," a voyage into the mystery and beauty of
healthy spiritual maturity.

The power of Immortal Diamond is impossible to exaggerate. With the
cutting skills of a surgeon and the heart of a Franciscan, Richard
exposes the misperceptions and counterfeits that have shaped our
faith. He then promises and delivers a "staggering change of
perspective" along with a taste of the intimacy of all love, both
human and divine. Every word is a rare gift from a true elder and a
worthy guide.
*Paula D'Arcy, author, Gift of the Red Bird and Waking Up to This
Day*
Richard Rohr continues to guide us to greater wholeness. The latest
example is his new book, Breathing Under Water. A prolific writer,
his books have helped countless souls, especially those who
struggle with issues of brokenness and seek transformation.
