Sabbath
The hidden heartbeat of our lives
Nicola Slee
Paperback |160 pp |198 x 126 mm
‘This is not only a very beautiful book to read, it is a very important one.’
‘This book is a series of invitations to be still, to go deep, and to hear again the songs that renew our life, the hidden heartbeat that sustains us, and if we will let it, brings us refreshment and renewal. Just dipping into this once a week could be the beginning of your Sabbath renewal.’
‘Timely, necessary and quietly earth-shaking.’
Deep within the woods, amid the harry and hassle of endlessly proliferating demands – from work and loved ones, social media and new technologies, as well as by church and other organisations to which we belong – lies God’s invitation to Sabbath, a clearing in which to pause, to breathe, to find light, harmony and regeneration.
In this beautiful meditation on the theme of Sabbath, Nicola Slee helps us to discover this treasure within ourselves, guided by poetry (her own and that of Wendell Berry), journal extracts and space for you, the reader, to record your own thoughts and reflections along the way.
