Has anybody read Into the Great Silence or A Sunlit Absence? I am curious why both books are endorsed by liberal Protestants… I love reading books by Augustinians (IMO there aren’t enough), but this just raised my red flags.

P.S. If anybody knows any good spiritual books written by Augustinians- please let me know.

His writings are on spirituality, not theology or dogma.

There are many things that we can agree on or disagree on in the area of spirituality.

I would not take any comments by others as any sort of red flag.

I am currently reading Into The Silent Land and so far it seems very good. A look at the references shows that is is solidly a Catholic work.

Are you going to read Sunlit Absense?

That is the second book after Into The Silent Land.

I may or I may not. I was given the first book as a profession gift from an Augustinian Friar.

I have a lot of books that I wish to read as well as all the books I must read for school so I am unsure if I will read the next book anytime soon. I most likely will get it and put it on my shelf to be read when I have the time in the future.
