Uncommon Gratitude

Joan D. Chittister

4/5 ( ratings)

"To deal with the meaning of 'alleluia' in life means to deal with moments that do not feel like 'alleluia moments' at all." In this series of reflections it becomes clear that singing "alleluia" is not a way to escape reality but receptivity to another kind of reality beyond the immediate and the delusional, of helping us understand what is now and what is to come.
