On the Nightstand: No Such Thing as Ordinary

My sister and I recently did spring cleaning, and we have boxes and boxes to go to the local donation center later this week. (And if you live in Arlington and are a jigsaw puzzle fan, stop by Central Library’s friends room. Just saying we donated a lot there, including a couple puzzles we never opened!)

As I was culling through books, I came across this one, which I bought a few years ago. Hmm, I thought. I don’t remember reading this one, and it looks good. I’m looking forward to reading it this month and getting more in touch with seeing Jesus in everyday life.

Fortunately, it’s short. I’m still working my way through last month’s selection, Rod Dreher’s Living in Wonder. It’s deep, and I can only read 20 pages or so at a time. I don’t agree with everything Dreher says, but the man sure can write.

What’s on your nightstand?
