Caring Together

My latest book is a guide for groups of people who want to share their experience of caring. If you are a carer, or if you are caring regularly for someone - a family member, friend, neighbour or fellow church member - then, you'll find in the book material to help you reflect on the process.

I've also put together a website which provides additional material and explains in more detail what's in the book. To reach it, click here. Or, by following these links, you can see sample sessions on Failure or on Growing through pain.

In this book I offer ways of reflecting on some Lenten themes - drawing closer to God, discovering more about ourselves, understanding how God might be encouraging us to move forward in our lives. There's a reflection for each day of Lent. Starting with a light-hearted news item, each day's thought then leads into a comment on one of the weekly themes – Choosing, Living, Longing, Loving, Growing. Each brief thought ends with suggestions for personal reflection under the headings Rejoice, Reflect, Remember, Resolve. I hope the cumulative effect of these reflections will lead us into savouring life's riches even more fully.
