The Art of Letting Go

Living the Wisdom of Saint Francis

By: Richard Rohr OFM

Narrated by: Richard Rohr OFM

We often think of saints as rare individuals whose gifts far exceed our own, and St. Francis is no exception. But for Fr. Richard Rohr, a prolific author and renowned speaker, the life and teachings of this beloved figure offer an authentic spirituality we can all embody.

On the Art of Letting Go, Fr. Rohr gives us a six session learning course that explores: the surprising richness we discover by simplifying our lives - without taking a vow of poverty; liberation from our self-limiting biases and certitudes; contemplation and action, two key steps toward communing more deeply with the Divine, and more.

I wish everybody could listen to this

This is what we all need. Please listen, you’ll thank yourself. Such a simple, incredible work.

Compelling

First time in a LONG time that I’ve been moved to truly take on a different perspective

The Art of Letting Go

This tells me that the art of letting go is possible, and ask of all of us who are seeking God alone in all things. Telling also what it means to truly love God.

Transformative

Rohr dos an amazing job expressing the importance of contemplation to the spiritual journey and in offering Fransician practices and theology in easy to understand terms with practical applications relevant to current Western culture.

Excellent!

The book exemplifies a mind opened to the unfathomable unknowningness of God. "Knowing" God will never end ... now or for ever.
