At Home in Lent - by Gordon Giles (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Here is an original way of approaching Lent, one that will encourage you to consider your own faith journey in the light of the Easter story. Inspired by Neil MacGregor's Radio 4 programme, 'A History of the World in 100 Objects', Gordon Giles spends each week in a different room gleaning spiritual lessons from everyday household objects. As a result, you might discover that finding God in the normal pattern of life - even in the mundane - transforms how you approach each day. Running as a thread through it all are the seven Rs of Lent: regret, repentance, resolution, recognition, reconciliation, renewal and resurrection.

Review Quotes

'I am having to be very strict with myself about not leaping ahead. Somebody told me that they read each chapter twice, morning and evening, to stop themselves doing that. Thank you for a really stimulating, accessible and thought-provoking book.'
