Product Description

World of Wonders: The Transformative Power of Reading as a Spiritual Discipline

Why should we read? It's a question Jeff Crosby both poses and beautifully answers through engaging personal stories, literary reflections, and spiritual insights, within this rich, thought-provoking book.

World of Wonders is a heartfelt tribute to the power of books and reading's ability to unfurl the glory of God, transform our lives, open windows to the world, inspire our imaginations, and help us be more faithful Christ followers.

Crosby explores how reading bridges differences, fosters understanding, and brings healing in a fractured world. Whether you're a lifelong reader or just beginning to explore the joy of books, this compelling work reveals reading as a sacred practice--a means to encounter God, navigate life's seasons, and cultivate a more meaningful faith.

Discover:

  • How reading shapes our spiritual journey--with wisdom from C.S. Lewis, Dostoyevsky, Maya Angelou, and other great thinkers
  • Curated book recommendations at the end of each chapter to expand your literary and faith horizons
  • Stories that inspire, challenge, and uplift--reminding us that books are not just entertainment but a form of divine companionship

    Perfect for book lovers, spiritual seekers, and anyone looking to rediscover the joy of reading, World of Wonders is an essential companion for those who long to see God's presence revealed through the written word.

"Reading is a way of fulfilling Jesus's commandments to love one's neighbors. It's not love if you don't know them or name them or see their struggles and triumphs. Reading diverse voices is a pathway toward Christlikeness." - Jeff Crosby, Publishers Weekly interview
