Love is the essence, the very substance of God. Bernard of Clairvaux had a tremendous influence on the eleventh century-and his understanding of Divine love can still inspire and challenge us. Anamchara’s modern version of Loving God brings Bernard’s teachings into the twenty-first century, allowing modern mystics the opportunity to once again sit at the feet of this great theologian.

All things are ordered-measured, numbered, and weighed-by love’s structure, and nothing is left outside love’s realm.
-Bernard of Clairvaux
