Paulist Press, 2002

Well I Found The Book to be Excellent
This book is made up with entries Waldron made in his diary while he was preparing for a Merton retreat at St. Stephen Priory in Massachusetts years back. Robert Waldron considers Thomas Merton to be , more or less, his spiritual mentor. He has always been stunned with Merton's impeccable honesty and openness he was known for writing with. At one point, Waldron refers to the contemplative's ...

worth every cent I paid
I have only watched the Bold and the Beautiful since about 1996, that was when I learn't how to video record for when I was at work. This book is a wonderfully comprehensive guide to all things B&B. It starts from 1987, including how the cast were picked and hired. It begins with the Ridge/Caroline/Brooke triangle that leads to many intricately woven triangles. It has at the heart, the fashion ...

Poetry As Prayer: The Hound of Heaven (Poetry as Prayer Series)

Robert G. Waldron, Francis Thompson

Pauline Books & Media, 1999

An inspirational exploration of the "Hound of Heaven"
This book, actually now available from the publisher (Pauline Books & Media, Boston) is a wonderfully presented book, both aesthetically (size, paper quality and texture, interpretive artwork by Anthony Lobosco) and in content. Waldron, whom I have heard speak on the subject of Poetry as Prayer, is well-grounded in the life and times of Francis Thompson and enthusiastic about his subject. ...

Poetry As Prayer: Thomas Merton (The Poetry As Prayer Series)

Robert G. Waldron

Pauline Books & Media, 2000

Only By Divine Gift
Robert Waldron's introduction to the poetry of Thomas Merton is a splendid tribute to the late Trappist monk; more, the book itself is a small cavern of light where spiritual wanderers can find refreshment and restoration. The book begins by telling us how poetry can be read as prayer, as "secular psalms" if you will, and provides some valuable quotations about the connection between art and ...

Robert Waldron

Paulist Press, 2003

Written in journal form as a preparation for a retreat on Henri Nouwen, one of the most revered spiritual writers and guides of our time, this engaging book examines themes of brokenness transcended and integrated into Christian wholeness. Waldron takes full measure of Nouwen's often conflicted personal nature--struggles with loneliness, rejection, depression and sexuality--and professional--from brilliant tenure as a pastoral psychologist ...

Thomas Merton in Search of His Soul: A Jungian Perspective

Robert G. Waldron

Ave Maria Pr, 1994

Pregnant With Contemplative Fodder
This is an interesting little volume pregnant with contemplative fodder. In this book Robert Waldron superimposes Carl Jung's psychology of individuation over Thomas Merton's growth in emotional maturity. The two match up amazingly well. Due to the subject matter this book is not for everyone. But is it for you? If you are a student of Carl Jung you will like this book. It offers a living ...

Robert Waldron

Paulist Press, 2008

Prayerful Attention
Thomas Merton: Master of Attention is yet another gem from the pen of Robert G. Waldron. Waldron paints a vivid picture of Merton and explores aspects of the man and his spirituality not commonly considered. Following a lifetime of study, prayer and meditation, Merton came to know the power of attending, an act so simple yet so very profound. In so doing, he learned to transcend the mundane ...

hopeful, worthwhile book
I found Blue Hope to be worthwhile and hopeful. It is a gem of a book, reads easily and develops well, notwithstanding the comments in the editorial reviews above. If you have read this far you should purchase the book. I just wish I could find more like it. The author is giving the reader a small gift of hope and his story successfully conveys the gift. I was moved. PS- the book is ...
