Ronald Rolheiser

If you’ve ever felt a quiet stirring to go deeper in your faith, consider joining a faith-sharing group inspired by Insane for the Light by Ronald Rolheiser. This beautiful work invites us to embrace the wisdom years not as a time of slowing down, but as a sacred season of deeper light, meaning, and spiritual fruitfulness. In a small group setting, you’ll have the chance to reflect, share your story, and discover how God is still actively shaping your life in powerful ways. Together, you’ll explore what it means to live with purpose, passion, and hope—becoming, in Rolheiser’s words, a little “insane for the light” in a world that deeply needs it.
