A Bowl of Perfect Light: Stories of Forgiveness, Reconciliation and Repairing the World
Megan McKenna
( Orbis Books )
All of us face an unknown future sensing we are in over our heads. Where will we find respite and repair for our broken relationships? Our Trauma? We are short on resources, connections, and the energy to cope.
We hope for God’s presence and abiding justice, forgiveness, and peace that binds us together as the beloved children of our God.
In that hope and as we stand facing a difficult, even fearful, future, there are steps and practices for the journey that can help us. And there are stories that show us the way.
Through scripture and stories from diverse traditions including the gospel narratives, Jewish midrash, Hassidic tales, Native American oral traditions, and others, theologian Megan McKenna presents insights on–and practices in–forgiveness, reconciliation, restorative justice, healing from trauma, and participation in “repairing the world.”
Each chapter includes reflections, practices, and questions making A Bowl of Perfect Light a helpful resource for journaling or group discussion.
