An Almighty Passion is re-launched

Alan Hargrave’s first book 'An Almighty Passion, Meeting God in Ordinary Life' has been reprinted & re-launched by SPCK. It is available from the Cathedral bookshop and from Amazon.

Alan says ‘As I grow older I believe more and more in less and less. Less and less in the secondary issues of faith (which are often divisive). More and more in the great doctrines of Trinity, Incarnation, Passion and Resurrection, which not only define our understanding of God but also make sense of my life and the lives of others.

This is a book of some 40 stories which seek to illustrate some aspects of those great doctrines. All of them are true (though identities have been changed to protect confidentiality). They do not seek to defend or expound those doctrines. They simply try and relate them to the pain and the joy, the mundane and the surprising, the dull and the dramatic of the everyday life in which God is to be found.

It is through such encounters that God has met me in Trinity, Incarnation, Passion and Resurrection. Hopefully, this book will help you to make sense of your own stories in the light the story of God & of his dealings with us.’

An Almighty Passion was first published in 2002. It has just been re-released by SPCK.
