Let Your Heartbreak Be Your Guide: Lessons in Engaged Contemplation

Author Adam Bucko

“Adam blows open the gates of my heart, as he has done since I first met him when he was a young contemplative serving homeless youth on the streets of New York City. The deeper he walks into the holy and broken landscape of the human condition, the more graciously service melds with prayer.”—Mirabai Starr, author, God of Love and Wild Mercy

 “I am deeply inspired by these words from Adam Bucko, a contemplative priest, mentor, and friend to the poor. He is a trustworthy guide to discovering a spiritual life for our century and living in service of compassion and justice.”—Richard Rohr, author, Universal Christ

 “Each page opens a door into deeper parts of God’s incredible love that we see in Jesus, to discover parts of yourself that you didn’t realize were missing. The result is quietly transformative, as you allow yourself to become a more authentic human being—as Adam Bucko says, a true ‘contemplative activist.’”  —The Most Rev. Michael B. Curry, Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church; author, Love Is the Way
