With simplicity, eloquence, and power Thomas Merton explores the mystery of the Risen Christ. Previously unpublished, this piece captures both the author's energy and his vision of an authentic Christianity. It is pointless to view the Resurrection as a doctrine to prove or a problem to solve; it is the life and action of Christ alive in us. We are a pilgrim people. Our journey into the mystery of creation is in pursuit of real freedom. We are guided by the Law of Love and moved by the Spirit of God to serve our fellow man in response to the Risen Christ alive in us--from back cover.
