About this title

Review:

Mills assumes his readers are hungry pilgrims eager to travel in the steps of Jesus, hungry to glean from the experience of biblical forebears. This retreat guide is a way-in to the world of Scripture, and a reflection rich in its consequences and connections for everyday life. For Protestants and Catholics here is the added gift of a faith-walk led by an Orthodox Christian one who is unafraid to reveal himself, yet who knows it is only and all about God in the end. --The Rev. Dr Jo Bailey Wells

So much writing in spirituality is too removed from the realities we live with every day crawling toddlers, TV violence, nagging poverty, family vacations with the kids in the heat and humidity. Father William Mills stays with the truths that are near at hand the ups and downs of the house you constantly need to clean, your kids, your neighbors, your job. This is a treasure chest of experience, imagination, and local miracles. --Michael Plekon, PhD, Orthodox theologian

This new book is a marvelous invitation into the riches of both Scripture and prayer, and offers everyday believers easy, accessible, and enjoyable ways of encountering
God. Father William Mills helps us to see that entering prayerfully into the Gospel stories and meditating on the letters of St. Paul is something for all of us, not just for the saints. Here is food for thought that can nourish you wherever you are, a fresh new way to God s gracious activity in your daily life. --James Martin, S.J.
