In a world ever challenged by the presence of evil, even those who claim a faith can lose hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInto the Cloud of Knowing is an invitation to share in Antonio's personal quest for signs of God's continuing faithfulness. Set against places as diverse as the ruddy backdrop of Western Australia, the jungles of Rwanda, dusty refugee camps fraught by gunfire, the chaos of the London Blitz or the picturesque mountains of Sicily, the book merges creative non-fiction with biography, theological reflection and social commentary, fuelled by an attitude of hope. Antonio traces accounts of miracles, conversions and healings, angelic encounters, prophetic dreams, deliverances and the wisdom of children, spanning nearly a century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is assumed that the mystical life is a dark reality, reserved for only great saints. Yet, our lives are filled with a million moments to help us slip through a rift, a Narnian wardrobe that we will recognise as familiar, yet forever new. Antonio's gift of love to his children and for posterity, Into the Cloud of Knowing is an invitation to join the countless souls who form the cloud of witnesses, experiencing God's presence and proclaiming his mercy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003ePerth born Renato Antonio is the son of Sicilian migrants. He was baptised Catholic in infancy but became serious about his faith after a conversion experience just before his 16th birthday. His desire to fathom the mysteries of faith and life has led him into the Cloud of Knowing; that place in which one meets, albeit in veiled form, God in our midst. \u003cbr\u003eReflecting on personal experiences and those of others whose stories have been the catalyst for deeper insight into life, suffering, death and the supernatural, Renato provides a heartfelt reflection on God's presence in lives spanning nearly a century, in three continents. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Australian Self Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/18\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781922327581\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.61d","brand":"Renato Bonasera","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36670655037596,"sku":"9781922327581","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_b85bd30d-2b7e-4306-863d-e253f334fcce.jpg?v=1603923257","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/into-the-cloud-of-knowing-9781922327581","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
