Joshua ElznerBorn in 1990 in Dumas, Texas, and after a long journey of discernment-including priesthood and various forms of monastic and eremitic life-Joshua Elzner has been living in the Texas panhandle a simple contemplative lay life since 2016, one marked by olitude, silence, and ordinariness in the presence of the Lord, though the roots of this calling and way of life go back much earlier. This contemplation is also the wellspring of his writing and creative activity, which he hopes shall be of benefit to his brothers and sisters and shall also help in the enrichment and renewal of the Church according to the central mystery of the love and communion of the Trinity that is her life, born of the opened Heart of the Paschal Christ who is our way into the very heart of God, and whose love is ever poured out in the heart of his Bride and indeed into every human heart, uniquely precious and beloved.
