a beautiful meditation on the importance of light

Reminding us that "All God's creatures move toward the light--flowers, trees, people," Quaker minister and writer Brent Bill muses on the importance of light, both within and beyond us. In his uniquely gentle--and often humorous--style, Bill plumbs the rich outpourings of God's commandment, "let there be light." He is struck by the stunning light in a painting by Chardin, by the varieties of seasonal light, by the light that plays upon his wife's hair, by the light he encounters in those he loves. He also encourages us to plumb those outpourings through "illuminating moments" that invite us to reflect on creation, ourselves, each other, and God.

What a gem

This is a wonderful read! Like Bill's earlier title, Holy Silence, Mind the Light is a brilliant primer in practical spirituality. Bill gently leads the reader through Quaker practice in a way that's open and inviting. He intersperses the chapters with "Illuminating Moments" that are useful exercises tied to the text. The subtitle sums up the books intent for me - learning to see with spiritual eyes.
