God’s Passionate Desire

God is waiting. Our hearts are wanting. What must we do?
F?r. William Barry, SJ, believes that God wants an intimate relationship with each one of usand that the deepest desire of our own hearts is to have an intimate relationship with God. Yet while we pursue this desire and long for its satisfaction, we also resist itwhich can lead to a painful stagnancy. How can we move forward?
In Gods Passionate Desire, Fr. Barry serves as our spiritual director, leading us on a series of brief retreats to help us understand the foundations of our relationship with God, what threatens it, and how we can continuously move forward into a closer and more meaningful relationship with God. In his warm, conversational style, Barry offers meditations, poses questions, and gently encourages us to respond to Gods immeasurable love by following what is truly in each of our heartsa longing to love him in return.William A.
