Things Hidden Companion Guide

In this companion guide to Richard Rohr's Things Hidden: Scripture as Spirituality, readers are invited into a contemplative, experiential journey through the Bible as a path of inner transformation.

Organized chapter by chapter to correspond with Things Hidden, this companion guide helps readers move beyond analysis of Scripture into lived encounter. It offers structured reflections, lectio practices, contemplative sits, and embodied exercises that deepen Rohr's central themes.

Each chapter includes selected quotations from Things Hidden, Scripture passages, and carefully crafted questions designed to foster honest self-examination and spiritual growth. Rather than presenting theology as abstract doctrine, the guide creates space to engage the Bible as a transformative story-one that reshapes consciousness, heals division, and invites readers into divine union.

Written in a pastoral and accessible voice, the Things Hidden Companion Guide is ideal for individuals or groups seeking to move from information to transformation, discovering Scripture not as a set of conclusions, but as an invitation into mutual indwelling with God.
