Light When It Comes: Trusting Joy, Facing Darkness, and Seeing God in Everything

"Vividly portrayed scenes and experiences that will help readers find joy and hope and God in their everyday lives"
We all experience small moments of joy every day moments that move us, that seem to mean something we can t quite put into words. But in the rush of things we move on, and the moment is soon forgotten. In this book Chris Anderson helps readers become more aware of these small moments through sharing and consciously examining moments of joy in his own life.
Drawing on an ancient prayer tradition, the "examen" of conscience, Anderson relates personal anecdotes, short scenes, and stories in a collage style that stimulates readers into thinking for themselves. He shows (rather than tells) how the "examen" can serve as a simple but powerful way to "remember" moments of joy. And however small or fleeting these moments are, in those moments God is calling and meeting us.
