About the Book

'My aim in this book is to show clearly that the ... Dominican tradition ... is capable of shedding light on the questions of men and women today and suggesting a way of dealing with them. These questions are ultimately a variant of the one central question of human existence, bound up with a particular time, place and person: the question of a good and meaningful life ... my starting point is the basic conviction that a religious and dedicated life cannot be lived anywhere else than in the midst of our turbulent culture, which constantly makes us uncertain ... this book is deliberately written from the perspective of someone who in ecclesiastical jargon is called a "lay person".' From the Introduction by Erik Borgman 'This book is a highly attractive and stimulating exposition of Dominican spirituality by Erik Borgman, a Dutch Lay Dominican. The central intuition of the book is that Dominican spirituality is founded on the encounter of God in all of human experience. Dominic's experience in the early thirteenth century was born in opposition to Catharism, which maintained that God was remote from us and that there was a fundamental opposition between the divine and this material world. But for Dominic it is here, in our lives, with all their creativity and goodness, their mess and confusion, that God is to be found. Our mission as preachers pushes us "to enter the unrest of the street and the inn, politics and journalism, welfare, teaching and science, in the belief that the holy, the traces of the Holy One, are to be found there". Even in the most difficult situations, when all is dark, God is waiting to be discovered. "If Dominican spirituality has a core, then it would be this insight into the unexpected and unheard-of nearness of God'. This is the good news that the Order of Preachers was founded to preach and the source of the happiness of the preacher."' From the Foreword by Timothy Radcliffe OP
