A Rainbow Crystal of Wisdom


In Kaleidoscope, Clairmont has done it again – folksy, humble, sometimes self-deprecating humor with a message. This time the messages are from Proverbs.

In a kaleidoscope, there are many colors, many angles, and many different views of cut glass. With a turn of the wheel, you see something different. It’s the same glass, the same colors, but a different combination of puzzle pieces put together each time you turn the wheel of a kaleidoscope.

That’s what Clairmont has done with Kaleidoscope. She has used Proverbs as her cut glass, and with each turn of the wheel, she shows you something different, something unique and something wonderful.

No deep or startling revelations here, but each chapter gives you a great story, food for thought, study questions, and scripture to help you along in your journey.

I was intrigued and anxious to read the book, because I love the book of Proverbs. I read a chapter in it every day, well, almost every day. I was interested to see which proverb she chose at the beginning of each chapter, how she discussed it, and what questions regarding the topic she would bring, as well as coordinating scriptures.

I recommend this book to anyone who wants to see “God’s wit and wisdom in a whole new light.”
