This book, which is the sequel to the one reviewed above, is a conversation between Nick’s wife and a fellow airplane passenger. Again, I enjoyed the short conversational chapters which made the book a pleasantly easy read while covering many theological subjects. I’m sorry, but they didn’t send a copy of this one to give away on the blog. However, either of these books would make a great afternoon read or a nice gift set if you’re looking for something.
Again, since I’m running short on time for this review here is the summary that accompanied the book:

Day with a Perfect Stranger:

What if a fascinating stranger knew you better than you know yourself?

When her husband comes home with a farfetched story about eating dinner
with someone he believes to be Jesus, Mattie Cominsky thinks this may
signal the end of her shaky marriage. Convinced that Nick is, at best,
turning into a religious nut, the self-described agnostic hopes that a
quick business trip will give her time to think things through.

On board the plane, Mattie strikes up a conversation with a fellow
passenger. When she discovers their shared scorn for religion, she
confides her frustration over her husband’s recent conversion. The
stranger suggests that perhaps her husband isn’t seeking religion but
true spiritual connection, an idea that prompts her to reflect on her
own search for fulfillment.

As their conversation turns to issues of spiritual longing and deeper
questions about the nature of God, Mattie finds herself increasingly
drawn to this insightful stranger. But when the discussion unexpectedly
turns personal, touching on things she’s never told anyone, Mattie is
startled and disturbed. Who is this man who seems to peer straight into
her soul?

The last time we studied the Ancients (4 years ago), I borrowed this Gilgamesh Trilogy from someone.  As I was preparing our materials for this year, I remembered that I had planned to purchase this set for our own library the next time we study the Ancients. This summer I …
