"...is the way of darkness in Christian spirituality.  When we enter the wisdom of the night, we discover that all our certainties about God are like sand easily scattered by the wind.

Darkness teaches us that God is so much larger than what we can imagine, that many of our beliefs have become idols, and that the call to a mature spirituality has more to do with surrendering our attachments than to gaining enlightenment."


-Christine Valters, Abbey of the Arts
