Reviews

It is an immense gift to have these meditations now made available to a wider readership through the devoted work of Herbert Hughes. We have an opportunity here to encounter one of the great Reformed Christian voices of our time: gentle, unsparing, delightingin the local and domestic, yet with a clear catholic vision. Above all, a man whose holiness is manifest in the love of God and neighbour and in unbroken longing for the full light of day, the Morning Star rising in our hearts for judgement and for mercy. - Dr Rowan Williams
