What does tipping a cabbie in New York City have to do with the spiritual life? Or raftinh through white water? Does teaching a dog to heel have an element of the sacred? How about nursing blistered feet on a hike? Can fending of bears at a campsite or accidently setting fire to a dandelion field yield spiritual insights?

In Randall Cirner's world, these ordinary- and occabionally not-so-ordinary- events are moments of encounter in which God reveals himself to those ready to find him. God hasn’t distanced himself from us, Cirner notes through his own sometimes hapless, sometimes humorous experiences, God has placed us in this world and speaks to us through it. When we tune our ears to spiritual truths, we will find that daily life is a source of daily miracles.
