The Listening Project: Lessons of Life, Love, and Listening to God

Christine C. Williams. Wisdom House, $13.99 trade paper (133p) ISBN 978-0-9963663-1-1

In her second book, Williams (Working as One) recounts her journey to become better at listening to the divine voice within. She focuses primarily on a dark, difficult period in her life when she experienced significant loss, including the deaths of two of her friends, her horses, and her cat. Williams writes honestly and candidly about her struggles to overcome her ego and her task-oriented personality in order to turn inward and get in touch with her intuitive side. She explores how connecting with animals, observing signs in nature, and paying attention to sometimes not-so-subtle hints from God allowed her to heal, grow, and transform. Williams is at her best when ruminating on her relationship with her horses and dealing with their loss. Any horse lover or pet owner is sure to connect with her painful descriptions of saying goodbye to these faithful companions. By focusing on her struggle to process overwhelming loss, Williams encourages readers of all faith backgrounds to find solace and healing in the quest to become a better spiritual listener. (BookLife)
