Each chapter contains an in depth discussion of its topic, giving examples of situations that young girls may find themselves in, and this is followed up by advice on how to deal with these issues and what the Bible has to say about them. At the end of each chapter there is a section called 'headphones time', which contains questions for the reader to consider that help to focus in on the topics and encourage the reader to think about how they can act to tackle certain issues and make life better for themselves and for others.

The descriptions of situations that teenagers may encounter not only exemplify Hannah's understanding of young women, but also get you thinking about the topics covered in the book and how they relate to your life. In some cases there were situations portrayed that I had not come across myself, and I found these extremely useful in learning to empathise with other people and how they may be feeling.

Writing for young people like her, who are often suspicious of being told what to do or to think, Hannah Fytche does not set out to offer magic solutions, but companionship on the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is, broadly, in two parts: Part I explores\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003ewhy\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eit matters that we relate to God in Christ, while Part II focuses on\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003ehow\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eto build and maintain that relationship through 'rhythms of rootedness' - spiritual disciplines or habits of faithfulness, including bible study, prayer, experiencing creation, silence and rest, belonging to church, and liturgy. Those of us who did not grow up in the Evangelical tradition could learn a great deal from the way in which she communicates her discovery of these key building-blocks of Christian discipleship to others who may be less familiar with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough most of the ideas here are not new in themselves, Fytche presents them in a new way, encouraging others with her youthful energy and enthusiasm to take the risk of discovering a God who transcends all our attempts at labelling. She is disarmingly honest about life's complexity and the imperfections of the church - 'messy' and 'tied up in knots' both recur several times - in a way that will encourage other young Christians to admit their own struggles and find comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFytche is a Master's student in theology at Cambridge, and a potential ordinand. She writes with the directness of the regular blogger: her own blog, createdenough.com, is listed alongside several others in an index at the back, together with suggestions of music and further reading. Each chapter ends with 'headphones time', a practical exercise in prayer or reflection designed to help block out distractions and allow God to speak. In a genre dominated by introverts, it is also refreshing to read an extrovert's take on spirituality and the importance of silence: 'why should we make the effort to love silence when you have Netflix?' Read on and find out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eReview by Canon Rowan Williams, Precentor of Peterborough Cathedral\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReform October 2018. Review by Diana Paulding\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blurb of \u003cem\u003eRooted in God's Grace \u003c\/em\u003eset it up to be little more than a recommendation to pray, read the Bible and go to church. However, the depth and honesty with which Fytche writes, and her biblical knowledge, questioning and growing faith, surprise and humble those who make the proverbial error of judging this book by its cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach chapter focuses on a different way in which one can grow in the knowledge of God. From making the most of silence to finding habits that draw one closer to God day by day, Fytche explores ways in which anybody can root themselves in the love God and allow the subsequent growth to influence their everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe end of each chapter poses a list of questions to encourage the reader to explore themes further, suggesting passages of scripture that can direct one's reflection and prayer. Interspersed between the chapters are anecdotes from Fytche's experiences of God and the Church in her childhood and student life that, whilst not always adding to the messages of the chapters, bring one back to the human and the humanity behind the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHumanity and grace is evident throughout the book as Fytche acknowledges the differences between different Christians' understandings, practices and styles of worship. She never belittles or rejects other paths - she makes clear her own opinions and beliefs but highlights the ethos of the book by stating that the only prerequisite of a church is that they 'have at their core the grace of Jesus'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether or not one agrees with all aspects of Fytche's theology, this is a book worth reading for anybody who struggles to make time for God in the everyday. It is a reminder of the ways in which one's understanding can grow and of the rewards that can be reaped when time is made for the peace of God. As a whole, it is an expression of the joy that is to be found when God is placed at the centre of one's life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Diana Paulding, MPhil student in Old Testament at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWider World: The Bookcase.

Hannah Fytche empowers her readers to explore and grow in their knowledge of God in exciting, creative and imaginative ways. Her 'Headphones Time' sections, found at the end of every chapter, contain questions, ideas and prayer topics to encourage a deeper understanding of God's glory and His love for us. Each chapter also features a suggested 'soundtrack': a song or piece of music that draws together the theme or purpose of the chapter. This is a fantastic book, written by a young person for young people (though not exclusively!).\u003c\/p\u003e"}
