One man’s search has helped light the way for millions
Now here is the documentary that goes to the heart of Merton’s spiritual journey. Atkinson’s cameras reveal life at the Abbey of Gethsemani, Merton’s home of 27 years, as well as Merton’s path in New York City, Redwoods Monastery (California) and Christ in the Desert Monastery (New Mexico). The picture that emerges from Atkinson’s study provides provocative insights into the interior landscape of one of the spiritual giants of modern times while capturing the haunting physical beauty of the geography that both nurtured and shaped Merton.

Time in the Garden
This remarkable program captures life at the Abbey of Gethsemani as it's rarely been seen before. While exploring the stark splendor of America's oldest Trappist monastery the cameras also reveal how this former home of Thomas Merton continues to build on its legacy as a center for spiritual renewal and peace. This revised version is twelve minutes long and features scenes from Merton's Hermitage, the Easter vigil, the wit and wisdom of Father Matthew Kelty and four seasons of natural beauty surrounding the Abbey. Time in the Garden is a meditation on a way of life reaching back to the third century.
