review:
'Wonder of Wonders: Christmas with Dietrich Bonhoeffer' is a beautiful gift book filled with snowy pictures and sayings by Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

The book is focused on a quiet reflection of the Advent. The book is laid out in 4 sections with titles like 'In Search of the Soul' and 'Christmas: Miracle of Miracles.' There are a few scriptures sprinkled throughout from the New Revised Standard Version. Accompanying the text are some absolutely beautiful shots of quiet scenes of Winter: A snowcapped mountain, frozen trees and other really nice images.

At 64 pages, it's a bit thin. The text feels a bit thin too, but there is some good things to reflect on in the busyness that a modern Christmas can be. This would be a nice gift book for someone to have out during the holidays. It can be looked at and paged through. The words and images are beautiful. I kind of wanted there to be more when it was all done.

I received a copy of this ebook from Westminster John Knox Press and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
