Historia Divina

Bol

Discover HISTORIA DIVINA-a bold new spiritual practice that invites Christ to guide you through the depths of history into profound revelation.In a world marked by sacrifice, protest, and the search for divine presence amid suffering, theologian and activist Jeff Hood introduces Historia Divina: a six-step mystical journey of Read, Meditate, Pray, Contemplate, Envision, and Record. This contemplative process draws you not merely to read historical accounts, but to enter them alongside the risen Christ, who has been present throughout all time. Expecting divine guidance, you encounter deeper truths about history, spirituality, and the self-culminating in a fresh revelation of Christ Himself.This volume applies Historia Divina to one of history's most radical acts of protest: self-immolation. Through visionary encounters, Hood journeys with Christ into the flames of:Thích Qüng ¿¿c's 1963 act against oppression in VietnamAlice Herz's Quaker witness for peaceNorman Morrison's desperate cry to end the Vietnam WarRoger Allen LaPorte's Catholic Worker sacrificeNh¿t Chi Mai's Buddhist plea for liberationGeorge Winne, Jr.'s campus protest against injusticeIn these searing moments, Christ appears not distant, but intimately present-revealing beauty, love, and divine solidarity in the fire. What emerges is a shocking yet liberating truth: "God Is in the flames."Whether you're a seeker exploring contemplative prayer, interfaith mysticism, anti-war theology, or the intersections of sacrifice and spirituality, Historia Divina equips you to engage history mystically, awaken to Christ's ongoing presence, and find inspiration for justice and change in our world today.May this practice liberate your heart and equip you to transform tomorrow.
