{"product_id":"9781594712845","title":"The Unsheltered Heart","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the tradition of Thomas Merton, Henri Nouwen, and Mother Teresa, Ronald Patrick Raab, C.S.C., writes from the depths of his own conversion experiences. Living and working among some of the poorest and most marginalized people of Portland, Oregon, Raab struggles with the meaning of the Incarnation in today's fractured world and with his own calling to promote the Gospel message of justice. His narrative style unsettles, challenges, and enlightens, yet in the end offers the hope of Christ dwelling among us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis at-home, self-directed retreat is based on the Sunday gospel readings for Advent 2011 (Cycle B) and the life-anchoring lessons Raab has gleaned from them. The Unsheltered Heart provides a simple four-step process for each day of Advent. It includes a gospel reading, personal reflections, commentaries, prayers, writing prompts, and spaces to journal for each day. A guide for small-group use is available for free download.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ave Maria Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47052477169904,"sku":"9781594712845","price":5.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781594712845_p0.jpg?v=1763813721","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781594712845","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
