The Bitter And Sweet

By Robert M. Eller

About the Book

Can a saintly man live as a normal man in society or does refusal to compromise require being an outsider to remain saintly?

What would men and women be like if they were able to live outside of society’s definitions of masculine and feminine?

Can mankind and the environment survive without changes to how we relate to each other and nature? What would be an alternative relationship?

When God created the universe was it a creation purely from imagination or did it require the contribution of a divine essence such the creation of a child requires a physical contribution from the parents? What are the implications if the contribution of a divine essence was a part of each of God’s creations?

Is every man Adam in disguise and every woman Eve?

Is the modern world eliminating the presence of God in our everyday lives?

Lone lives his life as an outsider and has settled into a cabin in a beautiful but isolated mountain meadow. He accepts that living his authentic self requires he reject living a normal life as defined by society.

Alice, described as spirited by her family but fierce by everyone else, meets Lone when he rescues her during a sudden storm while she is riding her horse.

Though the development of the relationship between them philosophical and spiritual themes are explored.
