It is a guide to some of the deepest insights that Julian of Norwich has offered in her immortal text Revelations of Divine Love, and would make an excellent accompaniment for any individual or group looking for a guide to prayer and reflection over a period of time. Having offered some authoritative historical and theological context, Pennington explores Julian’s text from the tenth revelation onwards. To offer a taste: ‘The wound of Christ’ has us entering, not just contemplating externally, Christ’s pierced side, and experiencing the outpouring of his love. ‘His dearest mother’ offers a way to understand that the love that Christ has for her is the same and as strong as the love that he has for us. In 'Christ our saviour', Julian has a revelation that cannot be known with words, but only with experience, and yet she still manages to find words to lead us into the experience, and Pennington facilitates this beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIn ‘All shall be well’, a cloud comes over the mystical vision of the transcendent God, and Julian wrestles with the reality of sin, and demands to understand why God would declare ‘all shall be well’ when it really seems not to be. In ‘United to God through prayer’, Pennington gives a full and valuable account of different kinds of prayer. I am reminded of why I love contemplative prayer so much; for here we are freed from any notion of what God ‘ought’ to be to us. Pennington’s text is devotional, providing a practical application of Julian’s words to our spiritual lives and endeavours, and to our contemplation. Each chapter ends with reflections and questions, and, through these, Pennington makes the text of the Revelations participative, as the revelations themselves had invited Julian’s active participation. With Pennington’s guidance, we enter into Revelations of Divine Love fully. We cease to be critics and become disciples of the text. By this means, it gains the power to transform us, as Julian was herself transformed by her revelations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Dr Claire Herbert\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2024-10-23T14:55:57+01:00","created_at":"2024-10-23T14:55:57+01:00","vendor":"Emma Pennington","type":"Paperback","tags":["Devotional","Discipleship","KCLC","New Titles","Prayer","Spirituality","Upcoming titles","Women"],"price":1299,"price_min":1299,"price_max":1299,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":53599678103932,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9781800392069","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"All Shall Be Well: Visions of salvation with Julian of Norwich","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":1299,"weight":195,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"9781800392069","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/AllShallbeWell.jpg?v=1729691788"],"featured_image":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/AllShallbeWell.jpg?v=1729691788","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":62714290143612,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.656,"height":2339,"width":1535,"src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/AllShallbeWell.jpg?v=1729691788"},"aspect_ratio":0.656,"height":2339,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/AllShallbeWell.jpg?v=1729691788","width":1535}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow can all be well in the world in which we live? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat does ‘All shall be well’ mean when all is \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003enot\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e well? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThrough revelations ten to sixteen of her \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eRevelations of Divine Love\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Julian of Norwich returns time and again to the idea that ‘all is well’.

She shows how important it is to create enough time and space in our lives to attend to our mental, physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Each of the chapters explores a different area of wellbeing, written with gentle understanding and containing stories and useful practical help, ending with questions to encourage us to think and act upon her text. Throughout the book Naomi emphasises that the source of our being must be in God, who loves us and delights in us and who does not expect us to wear ourselves out being ‘human doings’ rather than ‘human beings’. Through biblical references, she encourages us to rely on Jesus and learn from him. To read this book is to learn how, in our own time and at our own pace, we can deepen our relationship with God and walk towards the fulfilled life God intends for each one of us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Jane Slinger\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRichard Frost, author of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/products\/life-with-st-benedict-the-rule-re-imagined-for-everyday-living\"\u003eLife with St Benedict\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis latest book from BRF Ministries on how work and faith are interrelated focusses on the specific topic of work-life balance and wellbeing.

She shows how important it is to create enough time and space in our lives to attend to our mental, physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Each of the chapters explores a different area of wellbeing, written with gentle understanding and containing stories and useful practical help, ending with questions to encourage us to think and act upon her text. Throughout the book Naomi emphasises that the source of our being must be in God, who loves us and delights in us and who does not expect us to wear ourselves out being ‘human doings’ rather than ‘human beings’. Through biblical references, she encourages us to rely on Jesus and learn from him. To read this book is to learn how, in our own time and at our own pace, we can deepen our relationship with God and walk towards the fulfilled life God intends for each one of us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Jane Slinger\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRichard Frost, author of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/products\/life-with-st-benedict-the-rule-re-imagined-for-everyday-living\"\u003eLife with St Benedict\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis latest book from BRF Ministries on how work and faith are interrelated focusses on the specific topic of work-life balance and wellbeing.

It takes us chapter by chapter through the seven double imperatives (e.g., ‘comfort, comfort my people’) that God issues to a broken Jerusalem in the book of Isaiah. There is a progression through these calls: Comfort; Awake, rise up; Awake, get dressed; Depart; Build up; Pass through; Build up. Each chapter contains reflections on the Bible verses, alongside illustrations from the author’s personal experience and that of many others. We are blessed by being allowed to share in such powerful experiences and insights; and there is much practical advice about moving on. This is a book that addresses deep distress and needs and promises even deeper solutions and hope. In the reflections at the end of each chapter it becomes ‘close and personal’. We are encouraged to look deeply into our troubles and ourselves, to write our thoughts and reflect through the day. Whether we are hurting ourselves or seeking to share comfort with those around, there is plenty here to touch our hearts – as God touched Jerusalem.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Liz Pacey\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-03T12:57:16+00:00","created_at":"2023-01-03T12:49:38+00:00","vendor":"Eva Leaf","type":"Paperback","tags":["Biblical engagement","Devotional","For individuals","For Women","Glassboxx","KCLC","Pastoral care","Women"],"price":999,"price_min":999,"price_max":999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42164481294527,"title":"Paperback","option1":"Paperback","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9781800392083","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":{"id":33880199430335,"product_id":7422307336383,"position":1,"created_at":"2023-01-03T12:49:39+00:00","updated_at":"2023-01-03T12:49:45+00:00","alt":null,"width":1535,"height":2339,"src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/ThisCrownofComfort.jpg?v=1672750185","variant_ids":[42164481294527]},"available":true,"name":"This Crown of Comfort: God’s seven calls to women in distress - Paperback","public_title":"Paperback","options":["Paperback"],"price":999,"weight":185,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"9781800392083","featured_media":{"alt":null,"id":26487358324927,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.656,"height":2339,"width":1535,"src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/ThisCrownofComfort.jpg?v=1672750185"}},"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/ThisCrownofComfort.jpg?v=1672750185","\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Portraitsoftcoverbook5.5x8.5inthehandsofawomanwearingabluesweater_ThisCrownofComfort.png?v=1681832721"],"featured_image":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/ThisCrownofComfort.jpg?v=1672750185","options":["Format"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":26487358324927,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.656,"height":2339,"width":1535,"src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/ThisCrownofComfort.jpg?v=1672750185"},"aspect_ratio":0.656,"height":2339,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/ThisCrownofComfort.jpg?v=1672750185","width":1535},{"alt":"Woman wearing a blue sweater and jeans holding a paperback of This Crown of Comfort by Eva Leaf published by BRF ","id":26961458888895,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.5,"height":2666,"width":4000,"src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Portraitsoftcoverbook5.5x8.5inthehandsofawomanwearingabluesweater_ThisCrownofComfort.png?v=1681832721"},"aspect_ratio":1.5,"height":2666,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Portraitsoftcoverbook5.5x8.5inthehandsofawomanwearingabluesweater_ThisCrownofComfort.png?v=1681832721","width":4000}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003eGod loves women.
