Book Review: A Glorious Dark, by A. J. Swoboda

March 6, 2017 by Bob Trube No Comments

An exploration of living in the tension of the glorious hope of Christian faith and the dark, unsettling realities of our lives through reflections grouped around the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of the Triduum of Holy Week. A great book to read reflectively during Holy Week [April 9 – 16, 2017].
