Written with honesty and humor, this delightful collection of essays will stimulate your thinking, stir your heart, and nurture your soul. There was a time when I knew everything about God.…I knew the stories of Jonah and Daniel and Saul like they were my own family stories; I could quote the most popular Bible verses…Somewhere along the way, I lost all that knowledge about God—or at least I began to realize how much there was to learn.…And I discovered, after whining about how difficult all of this Christian stuff was, that the mystery of not knowing was also absolutely, undeniably wonderful. Author Katie Savage beckons you to join her as she embraces the mystery of faith and gently eases into the sometimes turbulent waters of contemplative exploration. Structured around the liturgical calendar, this beautiful book explores the uncertainty that is inherent in the life of the growing believer, showing that even in the midst of questions, bold assurances of faith emerge. You’ll find yourself falling into step with Katie as she meanders through Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Easter, and Pentecost. A debut work of creative nonfiction, Whirlybirds and Ordinary Times weaves ordinary stories and surprising insights into reflections of spirituality, relationships, and life as we know it.
