Lent Is Not Rocket Science

What do light years and dark matter have to do with spiritual reflection during the forty days of Lent?

Author W. Nicholas Knisely, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Rhode Island and former professor of astronomy and physics, invites you into a new relationship with God.

Through these daily meditations, journey from the largest scale of the created order inward to the very smallest scale, learning about science along the way but much more about the complex beauty of God’s creation, the truth and mystery of God’s infinite love.

I ask you to try to see everyday things with a fresh perspective, looking for the mystery that each contains, and to find in that mystery an invitation to journey deeper in your pilgrimage to God’s fuller presence.
