I find this spirituality-based book being one of a good sources on looking for and finding God in the everydayness of our lives, God in all things. There are understandable and insightful points on prayer and discernment of God's will as well (these chapters are wise and practical). Short and on point, this was an enriching spiritual read.

On the critique part - I think that mentioning of all things Jesuit was a bit overdone. I see that the author is immersed in the Ignatian spirituality and has tremendously gain from it, and also how he is a part of the Jesuit family. Nothing wrong with it! But maybe a less is more here, as Church has many traditions and spiritual ways. No need to write on them, when the author, so to say, "specializes" in the Ignatian spirituality. But maybe he could embrace the broad Church more? But this is just a small thing, more a pet peeve of mine. Otherwise, this is a good spiritual book.

I went to a service in Exeter's beautiful cathedral last Easter where I listened to a brilliant service partly about finding God in the moment. It was an extremely cultured presentation, however, and a bit difficult at times. I would like to read it!

This book is a clearer and simpler extension of the subject and not just for Catholics, although it is certainly written from a Catholic perspective and based on St Ignatius's system of prayer. The most important principle of Ignatian spirituality is finding God in all things. helps readers to do that and uses anecdotes to show how this has helped him during his life.

Many suggestions in God Moments involve using steps. For example, Otto lists the way to make an important decision using Ignatian spirituality. He also writes about St Ignatius's famous Examen in detail, explaining all the stages required to complete this each day. I found the firs part of this very helpful - asking God for a grace in the morning. It's certainly a lovely and soothing way to start the day when you remember to do it!

Many religious books are quite heavy and boring, I am sorry to say. This one is well-written, profound and interesting, and I actually enjoyed it!

I received this free ebook from Net Galley in return for an honest review.

I was given this book by NetGalley in exchange for a honest review. Thank you. Beautifully written and well worth he read. Highly recommend.

We so often feel that there is a divide between out 'God life' and our 'real life'- the moments during our quiet time, or when we are at church at worship can feel do far removed from the 'real' business of life, when we're parenting or working or cleaning or what ever; doing the things that we 'need' to do. Our spiritual life can and should be enmeshed with every moment of our day, but this is easier said than done! Andy Otto helps us to bridge the gap between these two lives- a gap that doesn't really exist at all, but we need this book to remind us of that fact, and give us pointers on how to be mindful of God as we live our daily lives. Highly recommended.
