Sewing God Thomas Ramadhani Sj

How many priests grew up in a fashion industry? In this regard, Father Ramadhani can boast to be a rare breed. Cherishing his childhood memories with his mother whose passion was (and still is) in sewing, applying the Ignatian practice of contemplative in action, and listening to the voices from the Bible, he leads us through the inner paths in the fashion world. From buying the right fabric to dressing up and beyond, all the thirty chapters offer new metaphors for life and faith journey. Together they echo an unlikely invitation to encounter the divine in what seems to be the glamorously superficial world. This book has been designed as a month-long immersion in the fashion world. It also wants to bring together to one table fellowship the underpaid workers in many garment factories on the globe, the designers, and the supermodels. Everyone who is called to participate in the fashion world is invited to tap on the sacred, right before their very eyes every single day. Hence, "finding God in the fashion world" is not only possible, but it is more than obvious.
