Sacred and Desecrated: Forty Days with Wendell Berry

By Eli JacksonEmily MosherMichelle Shackelford, et al.

Sacred and Desecrated: 40 Days with Wendell Berry is the finished work of a group effort to reflect on the season of Lent in light of the poems, essays, and stories of Wendell Berry. We hope these devotions will help you develop a greater appreciation for God's creation and the way our everyday choices affect our bodies, families, land, community, and world. As part of Lent, this book honestly acknowledges the deep hurt and brokenness that exist in all these areas of life, but it also looks forward to the salvation promised to us through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the redemption of all creation through the power of the Holy Spirit. As you engage with the challenges and opportunities presented by Berry, you may even find that God is present in the places and things you thought were desecrated, working to transform what has been violated into something holy once more.
