Going Inside the Miracle: Mark Nepo
Book Spotlight – Inside the Miracle
by Mark Nepo
Inside the Miracle draws on work from twenty-eight years of Mark’s writing and teaching, including: the original poems and prose from Inside the Miracle (1994, 1996, now out of print), ten relevant essays from his collected personal essays, Unlearning Back to God (2006, now out of print), and thirty-three new poems and prose pieces not yet published.
“When faced with life’s challenges, we share at a more fundamental level. While no one can live your life for you, no one can make it alone. Inside the Miracle is especially suited for people to work with together with others as well as on their own. I’ve been blessed to know the truth and love of cancer support groups. I’ve also been involved for years in a men’s group. These kinds of gatherings are part of the medicine. I wouldn’t be here without such honest and loving support, because nothing replaces being seen and heard for who you are. The questions throughout Inside the Miracle have been created as way, not only to know your own heart and mind, but also as a way to strengthen the reader’s bond with others.
While the lessons in the book, Inside the Miracle, come from Mark’s journey through cancer, what’s here is really for everyone, as we all struggle to make our way through unexpected hardship.
