Is doing laundry a spiritual act? Can you meet God while cleaning your bathroom? Paul Stevens say yes. True spirituality, he says, is down-to-earth - we encounter God in the ordinary, common stuff of everyday life. Taking his cue from the biblical story of Jacob, Stevens explores the Genesis narrative and uncovers how ordinary moments are made extraordinary, transformed by the presence of God in the midst of the mundane. 'Everyday life is the spiritual discipline in which God continuously and graciously meets us,' Stevens writes. His insights help us see that what appears commonplace on the surface actually has great spiritual significance. When we least expect it, God surprises us by re-enchanting our daily experience and making every moment an opportunity to experience His blessing.
