"A Spring With Us" is a rather interesting book. I'd heard about Richard Rohr before so I'm glad I got the chance to read a collection of his writing.

I love Richard Rohr and this book is the best of the best. The book is set up in sections, the meditations basically pulled from one of his books and also further commented on. The book is a keeper. Not only a Franciscan but a contemplative as well the readings are easy to read, yet deep as well. It can be read out of order and a great book to have on hand. He is a commanding writer and his views drawn from multiple approaches are perfection. If you're not familiar with his writing, this would be a good introduction, I've read all of his books and this is a great addition to his body of works. I look forward to the release and will definitely purchase a copy! Another winner from Fr Rohr!

This volume of daily readings consists of material from Rohr's previously published work. The readings are divided into weekly themes with an introduction for each week. If you are a fan of Rohr, you will appreciate having all this material in one volume. However, this book is not for seekers. The readings might be a bit too involved for those who simply want a quick daily inspiration. This book is intended more for a course in spiritual formation.
