In this eclectic collection of short homilies for each day of the year, Michael Casey brings surprise, challenge, comfort, and encouragement to the reader who wonders at the workings of God in everyday life. His usual sharp wit, profound insight into the very heart of the human condition and the scriptural text, along with his uncanny ability to make the quirkiest of connections with all manner of sources, make this work an apt companion to one who desires a word of wisdom as they journey through a year of seeking God. Carmel Posa, SGS, Co-editor of Tjurunga: An Australasian Benedictine Review Casey's `repurposed' homilies are the best fruit of lectio divina. Where ever you stick your thumb in, you pull out a spiritually wise and theologically thought-provoking plumb. Engaging turns of phrase and energetic prose promote reflection that is both sweet and sustaining. Bonnie Thurston, Author of Maverick Mark: The Untamed First Gospel
