ZERO at the BONE



That moment when you encounter a kindred soul.

In my recent faith explorations, I have discovered many overlapping books, articles, and authors. Books on Buddhism have pointed me to journals on Christianity. One of those is Comment magazine. A review on the Comment website of Christian Wiman's book Zero at the Bone: Fifty Entries Against Despair found me immediately driving to a nearby bookstore to pick up a copy for my upcoming "bachelor weekend."

I'm finding this mix of poems, quoted passages, short essays, meditations on life and death, and observations on God and faith speaks to my soul. This is the book that I needed for the here and the now. Amen!
