From the Introduction: I live in one of the poustinias at the Madonna House. As many people know from Catherine Doherty's book Poustinia, the word means ""desert"" in Russian. A poustinia is a small cabin where people ordinarily go for a day of prayer and fasting, though some, like myself, live there several days a week as a way of life. This book contains ""words"" that I heard the Lord speaking to me. Many of them were shared at the Eucharist in the form of homilies; some were originally in the form of letters sent to my Madonna House family; some few were written for publication elsewhere; still others were jotted down for no particular reason. Writing from the poustinia is one of my ways of preaching the good news of Jesus, the exalted and unmerited privilege for which I was ordained. Fr. Robert Wild is a member of the late Catherine de Hueck Doherty's Madonna House community in Combermere, Ontario, Canada. He lives as a poustinik, spending much of his time in prayer, spiritual direction, and writing. He helped to edit Catherine Doherty's works but has also published several books himself, among which are Desert Harvest, The Post-Charismatic Experience, Journey to the Lonely Christ, and His Face Shone like the Sun. Ordained in 1967, he joined Madonna House in 1971.
