There's a gay Hispanic gymnast whose lover died of retroviral plague; a Native American stunt coordinator whose cowardice caused a catastrophe; an Aborigine swimmer obsessed with her brother's death; a genetically engineered "fiteball" player caught in a point-shaving scandal; a Bosnian movie star who strangled a starlet; a Japanese American prostitute and assassin; and an African American "bizzyball" player, dreaming of the child she aborted.

Aiden and the team unite in a climactic encounter with a triple-bodied Satan, who explains why God is playing a game with the universe.

Download or read book The Divine Dance written by Richard Rohr and published by SPCK. This book was released on 2016-10-28 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Divine Dance has become a classic for fans of Richard Rohr and an important book on Christian mysticism, it provides a fresh perspective for anyone studying or teaching the trinity. The Trinity is the central doctrine of Christianity, but it is still widely considered a mystery we won't ever fully understand. Should we still try to understand it, even so? If we could, how would it transform our relationship with God? In this stimulating and thought-provoking book, internationally recognised teacher Richard Rohr explores the nature of God and the paradoxical idea of the Holy Trinity as both three and one. With clear, surefooted wisdom, he encourages us to build on the early Christian understanding of the relationship between Father, Son and Spirit as a flow and dance - a Divine Dance - that we are invited to join in. An engaging, accessible look at the nature of God, The Divine Dance will challenge the way you think about the Trinity and give you a much fuller understanding of the triune relationship that is at the heart of Christian doctrine. It will leave you with a faith that is renewed and strengthened, and show you how you can engage more deeply in your relationship with God and the world through the Trinity.
