1 out of 5 stars Odd spirituality   August 11, 2008
  5 out of 7 found this review helpful

If the idea of a prayer to a "Father-Mother God," a study of New Age enneagrams, or a retreat with nude men jumping over fire pits is in line with your notion of spirituality, then this is your book, as Richard Rohr is notorious for promoting oddities like those just described. But if you're interested in straightforward spiritual direction, you might stick with works by more reliable figures like St. Ignatius Loyola, St. Francis De Sales, or Fr. Thomas Dubay.

Growing up in a fundamental Christian home and attending a conservative church,I was at first hesitant to read such a "out there" book by a catholic none the less. But it being recommended to me by my counselor as the middle road between the eastern way and the western, I was intrigued. I was so refreshed and renewed in my walk with Jesus to see Him as one who loves all and wants to be reconciled to all, no judgements. The Eastern way of looking at life used to frighten me but after this book, I feel more open minded and walking down the road God wants me on. I have such a new appreciation for the Catholic religion and their view of who God is. I reccommend this book to any who are searching for more of who God is.

Father Richard Rohr's book Everything Belongs gives birth and expression to a contemplative, reflective heart. He invites one to enter into a new level of spiritual awareness that everything belongs. We are all one, brothers and sisters, connected and interconnected in God's Creation. This leads to awe, wonder and gratitude: Contemplation!

This book is a real gift, full of insight and vision. If you like Rorh you won't be disappointed by this book. I have read parts of it over and over again. A great book for spiritual daily reflection.

A little redundant at times, but just when I
was getting a 'redo' there would be a nice new
nugget of wisdom. I liked it, will read more
of R. Rohr.
