Steady and Trembling calls to mind both the narrative artistry of Annie Dillard and the theological ruminations of Kathleen Norris. In a lyrical voice, it explores questions of faith and life with rare emotional complexity: How does one learn to be creative rather than only productive, to search for meaning rather than marketability, to belong to nature rather than control it, to live in awe rather than on autopilot? From his home in a Chicago suburb, Tom Montgomery-Fate, the father of three children, demonstrates how one might weave a family and a faith into something that is both creative and sustaining, into the art of daily life.
