Slzy věcí - Prorocká moudrost pro naši rozjitřenou dobu – Rohr Richard (2026)

How can we live compassionately in a time of violence, injustice and disappointment? What can we do with our own anger when faced with a world that seems deeply unjust? In one of his most personal books, Richard Rohr turns to the texts of the Old Testament prophets and shows that their often-overlooked books can offer important inspiration for the present day. The prophetic writings trace the whole arc of human maturation, from initial anger and blame through profound sorrow over the suffering in the world to compassion and understanding. Through their critical views of society and institutions, the prophets point towards what Rohr calls “sacred criticism”, a way of confronting evil and injustice without losing awareness of the interconnectedness of all living things or faith in universal divine love. This inner movement from anger to compassion also prepares the ground for Jesus’ message, which Rohr says follows the same pattern. Written in the author’s typically accessible and human style, this Czech-language book draws on centuries of biblical scholarship and brings the wisdom of ancient texts to life. It offers an inspiring path for anyone seeking a more compassionate way to live amid a wounded world.
