 General Description:

By Marko Ivan Rupnik, Translated by Susan Dawson Vásquez
Foreword by Cardinal Tomáš Špidlík, S.J.

The term "spiritual" today means many things to many people. This inspiring book gives Christians a surer footing, showing what church tradition teaches regarding true spirituality and how it can best be lived out amid the hectic pace of modern life.

Composed of two insightful essays titled "The Spiritual Life" and "Spiritual Fatherhood: A Majestic Path for Personal Wholeness," In the Fire of the Burning Bush offers an appraisal of Christian faith that will be new to many readers. Marko Rupnik casts his net widely, drawing in helpful reflections on spirituality by ancient and patristic authors from both East and West. While accessible to all readers, Rupnik's rich discussion tackles some profound subjects, including how a correct understanding of spirituality moves beyond common but false oppositions to a perspective that integrates all dimensions of life.

Rev. Marko Ivan Rupnik is a Jesuit priest who works as director of the Centro Aletti in Rome and teaches at the Pontifical Oriental Institute, the Pontifical Gregorian University, and Saint Anselm Pontifical Liturgical Institute. Both a visual artist and a theologian, he is also a consultant for the Pontifical Council for Culture.

R. A. Herrera says -
In the Fire of the Burning Bush is a work of considerable insight and profundity. When Marko Ivan Rupnik follows his inspiration in the Greek and Eastern fathers and later Orthodox writers such as Berdiaev, Lossky, Bulgakov, and (most important) Soloviev, he nicely discerns the nature of the spiritual, freeing it from the misinterpretations that plague it today. The spiritual life is seen to be both centripetal (unifying) and centrifugal (expansive), issuing from that all-embracive love that is Christ. Of great beauty is the section dedicated to the Face of Christ (the Acheiropoietos), a synthesis of the life of the spirit. . . . A book to be recommended highly.

Sebastian Brock says -
Drawing on the traditions of Eastern spirituality, both patristic and Russian, the author of this luminous book, who is a creative artist as well as a theologian, deftly pinpoints the malaise felt by postmodern humanity and then goes on to identify ways forward, toward an authentic spirituality.

Rev. Robert F. Taft, S. J. says -
Christian spirituality is not an area of study: it is Christian life itself. That is what this book is about. Don’t just read it. Live it.

Alvaro de Silva says -
In the field of spirituality, so overgrown today with dull, sterile self-absorption and often self-deception, this short book shines, proclaiming once again the real thing — a personal relation in daily life with a loving and forgiving Trinity — and how to get there, as Jesus of Nazareth did, with feeling and common sense, in a spirit of prayer, humility, and service. Rupnik’s In the Fire of the Burning Bush is a must for all spiritual directors and even Christian “gurus.”
