Wild Windows is a delightful romp through many of the religious and spiritual issues that trouble us today. Richard Dell explores these issues free of doctrine and dogma.
Through story, humour, and sharp insight, he opens fresh windows onto where religion in general, and Christianity in particular have got to. We find deathbed conversions (how annoying they can be!), pick-and-mix spirituality (annoying enough to many of us), and we are asked to contemplate the virtues of wishy-washy Anglicanism.
Richard Dell takes hold of issues such as religious pluralism, Christianity and reincarnation, the Bible and homosexuality, and even faith outside the church. He breathes life into them, invariably cloaks them with a story, and then, like a magician, plucks from the shadows of his stories, rays of delicious light. As for the Second Coming...
Wild Windows will certainly entertain you. It might make you laugh. It might also at times infuriate you. But from time to time, as you stand at a window and stare at the wild sky, you will realise that it has enlightened you. We are no longer petitioners of God, he tells us. We are entering into partnership with God.
