The next stop on the Virtual Book Tour is a review by Christine Sine at GodSpace:
I don’t often do book reviews, but when Sorin Books contacted me about doing one on Christine Valters Paintner’s latest book Eyes of the Heart: Photography as a Christian Contemplative Practice, I was delighted. I love Christine’s contemplative books and this one did not disappoint.
I am a keen photographer but this book’s appeal goes far beyond that. Its contemplative exercises adapt the contemplative practices of lectio divina and visio divina into a new form of spiritual observation. Through the lens of a camera we can not just take images but receive them.
