    The Tenderness of God

    ,
    The tenderness of God is not a theme that can be approached just to satisfy our intellectual curiosity, but is an unfathomable mystery that leads us deep into the heart of God. A deep thirst for tenderness means that many, both young and old, are prepared to do almost anything if only this thirst can be quenched. Many of us go far astray without knowing or even suspecting that the most extraordinary tenderness is that of God, and that indeed he is the source of all tenderness. This volume is the fruit of many years of prayer and thought. Throughout these meditations on lesser-known biblical texts, the reader will engage with the compassionate, merciful God, a God with all the tenderness of both mother and father. In this way, the reader will be opened up to new vistas onto the mystery of God's humble, delicate tenderness. Today the world suffers such a deep wound that only one remedy will suffice: the balm of God's tenderness. Daniel Bourguet, in the spirit of the Great Physician, applies the salve of three achingly beautiful OT texts--good news of God's infinite mercy and compassion--with a tone befitting the deep need of the hour.

    Spiritual Maladies

    ,
    To love is to live and to live is to love; this is God's intention for humanity. However, humanity falls ill along the way; its love of God and neighbour becomes diseased, infected with other loves; the love of money, of pleasure. . . . To these malaises God becomes our physician; he draws alongside us to heal and to restore us to fullness of life. The author enables us to rediscover this obscured face of God, the face of God our physician, full of compassion and very attentive--a God before whom it is best to lay bare all our ills in order to be healed.   In this important corrective, Daniel Bourguet reorients readers. Sin is not so much law-breaking behaviour that requires a punitive judge as it is a spiritual malady of the passions in need of the Great Physician. From Cain's sin to Christ's ministry, we see grace as God's medicine for our sick world. This book is gentle, therapeutic gift.

    To Love as God Loves: conversations with the early church

    ,
    'Being a Christian means learning to love with God's love.  But God's love is not a warm feeling in the pit of the stomach.  It has definite characteristics we learn in the course of our life, in the behaviour and teaching of the early monastics, as we ponder over what we can say about how God deals with us, and finally, as we model our own lives on what we have learned.'

    The Spiritual Life

    Originally part of a series of broadcasts made by the author prior to the Second World War, this small book was meant "to present some of the great truths concerning man's spiritual life in simple language".  As one critic noted, "Underhill has admirably and eloquently acheived her objective".   Evelyn Underhill was a prolific British writer on mysticism and spiritual growth, and her books are as relevant today as when written; containing both divine insight and practical reality.

    Solitude

    ,
    Some long to find it, others long to escape it. Whether we welcome or dread it, solitude is something we all experience in different forms at different points in our lives. After enduring nearly five years of solitary confinement, in cruel and terrifying conditions, Terry discovered he was drawn to find out more about the power of solitude in the lives of other people. Here, he recalls encounters with people who have experienced differing ways of being solitary: among them the peaceful solitude of remote and beautiful places, the unsought solitude of lonely people living in busy cities, the deceptive solitude of those living in the twilight world of espionage, the enforced solitude of the prisoner, and finally, the inescapable solitude of those drawing near to death.
