This book is such an intelligent, spiritual and inspiring read. The introduction itself is worth the price of the book. Throughout the book the reader finds the wisdom gained from actual experience in the arena, as well as thoughtful and wise reflection on her experiences. This, coupled with her skilled writing, makes the book a blessing. This book has inspired personal reflection about my everyday experience of God's presence in my life. Her insight about the availability of God's presence to us all is unique and valuable. I read recently that Frederick Buechner was introducing Ms. Raynor at a bookstore signing for "The Voice That Calls You Home," and that is fitting because her writing reminds me of his work. I hope Andrea Raynor continues to write and publish new books. I will purchase all of them. I already include her in my list of favorite authors, along with Mr. Buechner and Barbara Brown Taylor.

This is one of the best books I have ever read having to do with comfort, grief, and facing the big questions in life. Ms. Raynor writes in a way that instantly draws you in but gives you space to have your own feelings. Although she leads us into difficult territory, she does so with a grace that makes it safe - ultimately bringing us to a place of hope. I highly recommend it for people who are searching regardless of faith tradition or spiritual perspective. It will be my favorite gift to give this year!
