Spirituality

"Melodies of a New Monasticism" adopts a musical metaphor of polyphony (the combination of two or more lines of music) to articulate the way that early Christian virtues can be woven together in community.

Published in the UK for the first time, Mixed Blessings is one of Barbara Brown Taylor's earliest books which helped to establish her reputation as one of the finest spiritual writers in the English language. In a series of reflections on scripture, she considers the startling reality of what it means to be the people of God.

This attractive little book offers an eight-day retreat through the Bible's poetic allegory of divine love, the Song of Songs. Four times a day for eight days, for Morning, Midday, Evening and Night, the book presents a short passage from the Song of Songs (NRSV) and a 300-500 word reflection.
