Pocket Prayers for Easter

This book offers a lively, engaging and accessible look at the theme of the Incarnation, the mysterious event at the heart of Christmas, using personal stories, illustrations from popular culture and the arts, as well as daily Bible readings. The starting-point is what the 'Word made flesh' means for us and how the first Christmas should still have an impact on our everyday lives. We will be taken on an absorbing journey to help us recognise the person of Jesus in the people we meet, the conversations we have, and even in our relationship with nature and the arts. By the end of our journey, we will not only recognise Christ in others but also in ourselves, as we model ourselves on him and share his love, compassion and peace with our neighbours, whoever they are and whatever their backgrounds.

Responding to the Light is a collection of previously unpublished work by Michael Mayne, one of the most outstanding spiritual voices of his generation. Timeless, fresh and relevant as they were when they were first given, these seasonal addresses reflect his extraordinary giftedness with the spoken and written word.
