The Understory by Lore Ferguson Wilbert
After years of witnessing religious and political unrest in the evangelical church, Lore Ferguson Wilbert felt alienated and disoriented. She found solace in the woods, where she discovered that the forest could teach her how to live-and even thrive-when everything seems to be falling apart. In The Understory, Wilbert explores what we can learn from eroding soil, the decomposition process, the time it takes to grow lichen, the beauty of fiddlehead ferns, the regeneration of self-sowing seeds, and walking through the mud. Among the understory of the forest, Wilbert discovers rich metaphors for living a rooted and flourishing life within the complex ecosystems of our world.
