Daily food Readers’ rewards radiate from the combined 56 years publishing prowess of Michael Leach and Doris Goodnough. New from Orbis Books, A MARYKNOLL BOOK OF INSPIRATION offers 366 daily readings, “servings” of short introductions to writers whose works inspire many despite few folks finding time to read in entirety. The end of the publication provides an index that proves handy when we find ourselves wanting to reread a provoking passage still stirring in our souls after a writer pokes our psyches. Dostoyevsky and Dan Berrigan, Merton and Flannery O’Connor, Kierkegaard and Desmond Tutu, Teilhard de Chardin and Dorothy Day, Ghandi and Jim Cone–where else but in this book can you find these all these people (and more!) awaiting you bedside or at the breakfast table?
Excellent and Moving Leach and Goodnough made it happen–they tied the Christian (universal) call to care for our sisters and brothers to the nitty-gritty struggles throughout the world, and did so in a moving and creative way! Each daily reading literally takes you around the world with brief, touching and inspiring readings–readings that are often tied to feet-on-the-ground experiences of real human beings reflecting on a loving God’s caring presence. Thank you Mike and Doris–great job!
