Considering this as a spiritual book and something worth taking the time to mediate and chew on for a bit, I'm not placing 'dates' as it were here - but just a chapter outline to keep all of us on the same page. The 'weeks' and 'discussions' are tentative as needed, with the recognition that discussion on a certain aspect can take how ever long it needs to take while reading continues.
Next Sunday, after Liturgy, I'll post a few questions - please also feel free to post your own questions, as well, as this will open discussion up to a depth only one person cannot reach. Please keep all questions and posts under the same Chapter / Week - so that the discussion is not lost. Please quote the question in answering your response. I will tag each post as "Wounded by Love" so that they are easy to find with the Title and Week number in the Subject line.
Lord have mercy on us!
Amen.
