Snow Falling on Snow: Themes from the Spiritual Landscape of Robert J. Wicks

Rating:
Summary: A Title Too Good to Ignore
Review: The title's mental image is so intriguing (almost like contemplating, "what is the sound of Snow Falling on Snow"!) that I just had to take this book as one of my companions for a two-month sojourn in a snow-bound mountain cabin. Dr. Wicks' series of brief, mostly single-paragraph, thought-provoking vignettes centers on four themes: Experiencing the Lord, Availability, Clarity and Ordinariness. Each vignette provides focus for thoughtful, spiritual contemplation (ideally while gazing from a cozy cabin onto a landscape of snow falling on snow!). Nothing earth-shaking, but useful and worthwhile nonetheless. Recommended especially for those preparing for a spiritual retreat or pilgrimage.
