From the award-winning author and former New York Times opinion writer and columnist comes a fresh vision for navigating burnout and weariness through ancient Christian practices'Honest, wise and persistent in imagination, this is a book to refresh the seasoned spiritual traveler. A beautifully crafted weave of both resilience and wonder' Martin Shaw, author of Liturgies of the WildHow do we cultivate faith that endures?Early Christians often grappled with a reality we rarely talk about in contemporary life: that God seems to abandon the soul at times, leaving us feeling as if we are alone and left to our own resources. For centuries, times of 'aridity' were seen as necessary – prerequisites for growth and maturity.
