An honest and personal book, drawing out certain unexpected aspects of the ministry of Westminster Abbey in London, reflecting on its implications for the life and witness of the Church and for Michael Mayne's own inner journey. With a foreword by Alan Bennett.
What is authentic spirituality, and what noble qualities are needed so that we may stand up for what is truly sacred in today's anxious, divided and often sceptical world?
Starting from the area covered by his previously book - Memory, Victimhood, Forgiveness and Reaching out to the Other, the author moves deeper to speak of personal flourishing, social cohesion, political co-existence and the survival of the planet, as well as a deeper understanding of the work of God in the world.
