Full Description
With humor and grace the author explores the idea thatgrowing old, all by itself, is a spiritual exercise that can bring peace,assurance, gratitude, and love. "What good work Frank Cunningham has done with VesperTime. His underlying thesis that growing old is a way of prayer is quite wonderful.We're about the same age and I'm trying to see it that way myself. His bookis an invitation to more fully engage this stage of our journey and beenriched by it."-Richard Rohr "Anyone who has gazed at the rising moon or the emergingstars at twilight knows the beauty of this hour of day. Frank Cunninghamreminds us that the "Vesper Time" of life is a rich seedbed for spiritualgrowth. His intimate and engaging chronicle gives voice to the wisdom andpleasures of this time. For those of us who have not yet reached a certainage, but hope to, Cunningham reassures us of the powerful spiritual adventurethat awaits." -Judith Valente"Vesper Time reminds me of the gentle wisdom of Henri Nouwen's GeneseeDiary. Both authors have the gift of discretion. They share enough ofthemselves to identify with their journey in a way that puts the focus on thereader rather than on themselves. Reading Vesper Time is like taking a longwalk with a wise but down to earth friend. Relax with this book. It will nourishyour tired soul." - Robert Wicks
