Summary: An answered prayer
Comment: i found this book literally minutes after a desperate and quiet prayer asking God if i would "ever make it 'home'." Discouraged, I found this book for just [price] on the street, read it in one evening, and had my life changed because of it. It is an easy read, thought-provoking, intelligently and humbly written...it is comforting to know another has had the same awkward questions and thoughts about life's purpose, yet somehow expresses them with amazingly eloquent ease. I highly recommend this book to others.

Summary: waiting for the next
Comment: I have three of Bensons books now because I love his writing, love the way he lives his life and feel akin to the thoughts in his head. I am only giving him four stars because I feel he still has a five star book in him waiting to be written. God stills has that "something" for Benson to do, to write about for the rest of us pilgrims out here. Yet there is enough wisdom (written with humility) in this book that makes me want to grab my two children and impart it to them as well.

Summary: A Guidebook for the Dance of Life
Comment: This is a marvelous little book. Not even 150 pages, but it packs a punch. Benson's prose is magnificent. I have read the book 5 times in the last year and continue to learn from it. Each chapter follows a different theme, and Benson pulls images from his life experience to carry the chapter along. Never moralistic, the chapters are merely descriptive of Benson's life, and the way that he has found God through the rhythms of the church year, the praying of the Psalter, and other spiritual practices. The entire framework of the book is the quest to get back home to God. Because the chapters are never moralistic (i.e., Benson does not "tell us" what to do), there is much that each one can take from his work. Every time I read it I am reminded that there is a purpose in life, and that I can choose to "tap in" to that purpose. A very refreshing read, and highly recommended.
