Strangely Bright

Can You Love God and Enjoy This World?

Drink your wine with a merry heart. The Spiritual disciplines are crucial for Christians to grow in their faith: prayer, fasting, worship, and service. But one spiritual discipline you will not hear from many pulpits is the practice of delighting in God’s good gifts.

Pumpkin crunch cake. A really big tree. Johnny Cash. Baseball in October. Summer rain.

In this short book, Joe Rigney offers a biblical vision that bypasses both ingratitude and idolatry and instead enjoys God in everything and enjoys everything in God. As we fix our eyes upon the Father of lights, the Giver of every good and perfect gift, we will notice that the things of earth grow strangely bright.
