Night on the Flint River: An Accidental Journey in Knowing God

Rating:
Summary: In touch with God and Self outdoors
Review: Being an outdoor person, I was drawn to this book by the cover (I know, don't judge a book by its cover), but I was. I have been outdoors before, and come close to what I thought was death, but was pulled through by the grace of God. Night on the Flint River : An Accidental Journey in Knowing God is Roberta Bondi's experience of just such an event. she has a powerful way of relating lifes misadventures as ways of connecting with the divine. Some would call this a "fox-hole confession", however, Bondi reflects on what happens when someone is already a believer, and feels they have come close to death. Is coming close to death a time of fear or a time of intense spiritual growth? Roberta explores this question well, and helped me understand my faith a little better also.
