Overview

We can all hear God's voice, experience the presence of the God of all comfort; and enjoy the divine conversation. Hard times, however, can put us on the fast track. Mr. Rinehart suffered in prison for years. Everyone in prison suffers. However, suffering became the impetus for Rinehart's transformation. He found he was not alone; and began to regularly hear the voice of God, experience his presence and know his comfort in the most uncomfortable of places. FROM THE FORWORD: ENDORSEMENTS Fr. James Torres, S. J., America Magazine ... I just had to read it through to the end. It makes compelling reading. The Most Rev. John J. Snyder, Retired, Marywood, FL: These stories are powerful, vivid and honest . . . Rose Marie Berger, senior associate editor and poetry editor, Sojourners Magazine, Washington, D.C.: In 1577, Juan de Yepes (later known as St. John of the Cross) sat in a prison cell in Toledo, Spain, writing down the stories of faith that came to him in the shadows. How well I know the fount that freely flows. Although 'tis night, he wrote. Four hundred years later, another Catholic voice emerges under the pseudonym Gano Rinehart from a men's prison in Sanderson, Florida. There he finds loneliness and light, chaos and communion, lifers and liturgy, suffering and scripture. In the midst of an environment barren of good will, writes Rinehart, I was enjoying roses fresh from heaven. In my little spot in hell, I was receiving ice water. A must-read collection for those who want to glimpse the freshness of God in the dark night of incarceration.
