A Sense of the Sacred
by Norman Bakken
|
- Norman Bakken reflects on his spiritual journey as a
son, husband, father, and minister. He explores the
complexities of human nature with incredible insight, wit,
and most of all, acceptance. This reverent account of
Bakken’s relationships with the people in his life and with
God illustrates the enduring challenge of finding what is
sacred in ourselves. His home town is Everett, Washington,
and after many years in the ministry in various states and
countries, he resides in Blacksburg, Virginia, with his wife
Ginger
|
- “How easy it is to give up on the past, to despair of the
present, and to lose hope for the future in a world where the sacred
is seemingly confined to the interests of the self as narrowly
understood. We are part and parcel of one another.” (page 66)
|
- “Now I have been tempted to go too far ahead, to say too little
of what is already too much. To be quiet, to be attentive, that, I
have learned, is the essence of faith in any tradition.”
