Review

“As we look toward Lent and Easter, I am happy to recommend a new book by Sarah Arthur, At the Still Point. In this lovely book, the author has compiled selections from Holy Scripture, along with works from 20th century writers to give her reader something new each day. When you are taken unawares in your meditations by a line of poetry from Christina Rosetti or a scene set in a novel by John Irving, Arthur offers new language in various contexts to provoke and to nudge readers toward a quiet moment with God. As we look forward to Jesus rising from his ultimate sacrifice to let us follow him on the road home, we can find a poet, a novelist, an essayist, or a musician to light the path. Enjoy this generous new book in the spirit of love, joy, and thanksgiving.” —Novice Mary Cathryne Vanek, St. Placid Priory

A dear friend had recommended this book months ago; when I finally bought it, I could see why.Each week's reflections are orderly, gentle, powerful, rhythmic, and soothing, all by turns. There are ancient prayers and poetry, excerpts from authors loved long ago (George MacDonald, Herman Melville), and others new to me but well loved by others (George and Mary Herbert, Dostoevsky). This is not a sentimental book, or a large squishy greeting card. It is a robust reminder of a broad, rich and wide orthodox heritage that is fresh today.Pull up a chair and a cup of strong coffee. Start your day - or end it - with words that lift your thoughts to prayer.

What is "ordinary time"? This little gem will explain that term, and as you follow the weeks of ordinary time this year (for ordinary time is about to begin), the author has found beautiful poetry and excerpts from literature to enhance some of the free hours you may find on your hands this year during "ordinary time." The blessing for me was the author took her literary excerpts from books that I became interested in by reading the excerpts she had chosen -- so I bought the books to read myself -- many of them books I had not heard of before. A mind stretcher.

Sarah Arthur gets 5 stars just for putting a book like this together! I have a church coffe klatch meeting where we have read scripture and our own spiritual poetry...but we ran out of our poems. Along came Sarah Arthurs book and I feel in love with it. I learned about "ordinary time", and felt the movement of God's Spirit as the weeks went on. The secular writings ignited discussion. We are soaking the words up as sponges. I do hope she is inspired to writ and put together a sequel.

Wonderful resource for keeping your faith development going strong through "ordinary time." Being exposed to beautiful and sometimes puzzling literature helps me to grow, and deepens my appreciation of the many past generations that have struggled with the challenges of living in faith. I have become of fan of Sarah Arthur's literary guides for Advent and Lent, as well. Thank you, Sarah Arthur!

I meditated on the Psalm every day each week and divided the readings so that I read at least one every day. The downside was that I wasn't always reading Scripture every day (except for the Psalm), but I enjoyed being exposed to different poems and excerpts. I started late, so I only read a few weeks from this book, but I look forward to making my way through the entire thing next year. I never really paid attention to the liturgical calendar before, but it's kind of fun. Now on to Advent!

This is a wonderful devotional for those who love poetry and literature. Every week has about 4 Scripture passages and 4 literature excerpts, all of which bear repeated reading and are framed in an opening and closing prayer. I started late, so I am feeling free to complete a "week" in less than 7 days if desired.

This is another fine devotional book by Sarah Arthur. It has various reading from a wide variety of sources. It is well laid out and user friendly. The author takes a very reverent view of Scripture as well as applying it to modern everyday life. I highly recommend this book.

Get it! Read it! If you love God and poetry and literature, this will rock your world in a grand way!!!!
