Meeting the Great Reality Within: Living in the Now
A book I’ve often returned to over and over is Thomas R.
Kelly’s A Testament of Devotion. Kelly was a Quaker and a mystic. His book centers on what the Big Book calls “the Great Reality within.” Since it’s a Greater Reality we can never fully understand it – but we can certainly experience it – and mystics like Kelly come as close as humans can come to describing what such an experience - and still more – what a such relationship is like. In this episode Fr. Bill goes further into Kelly’s chapter: The Eternal Now and Social Concern. Kelly balances a person’s work in the world with an experience of God in the Now. The two flow out of one another just as carrying the message flows naturally from an experience of God.
