Wondrous Encounters : Scripture for Lent
This item is only available to U.S. billing addresses.
Overview
A powerful, timeless book of meditations for the Lenten season from one of the most beloved spiritual writers alive today
What if Lent were not primarily about self-improvement, but about real transformation through encountering God?
In Wondrous Encounters, Richard Rohr invites readers into a forty-day journey through Scripture that is less about explanation and more about lived experience. Written during a season of silence and solitude, these reflections follow the daily Lenten readings from Ash Wednesday through Holy Saturday, tracing a downward path of surrender that quietly becomes a movement toward new life.
Rather than offering moral instruction or theological argument, Rohr approaches the Bible as a living dialogue—one that mirrors our inner struggles, unmasks false certainties, and opens us to deeper seeing. Drawing on themes of non-dual awareness, mercy, and divine intimacy, he shows how Scripture shapes us not by answers alone, but by encounter itself.
Written in Rohr’s characteristically spacious pastoral voice, Wondrous Encounters offers a contemplative companion for Lent—one that invites readers to be fully known, fully honest, and gradually transformed through the slow, faithful reading of God’s Word.
