Letters from Nazareth: A Contemplative Journey Home
£16.10£18.00 (-11%)
This wise and beautiful book, written in the form of spiritual letters, reflects on the themes of home and being at home: with ourselves, with each other, with the times we are living through, and with God. Nazareth, where Jesus spent his first thirty years, was a physical home but also a spiritual home and the place of nurture, dreaming, formation and becoming. Richard Carter offers a wealth of insight for experiencing how, as Christians, we carry Nazareth, the place of God’s incarnate presence, with us wherever we are and how it becomes a home where the Word is made flesh again in our lives and we find our place of deepest belonging. Rich in biblical reflection, poetic meditation and practical guidance for living in demanding times, Letters from Nazareth abounds in simple yet profound wisdom for our world today.

Absolutely beautiful, powerful. This book will lead you home.

I have just purchased this book having flicked through a copy at my friend’s house. I was keen to have it as my own, to mull over in my own time and to reflect on the valuable insights it offers up.
It is a beautiful and Yes, enjoyable book. Thoughtful, sensitive and practical in equal measure. It’s a book to dip into and to savour, filled with everyday anecdotes which are both amusing and insightful. Richard Carter has clearly had a rich and fulfilling life, but one not without its challenges. It has been a pleasure to witness some of that and to take this journey with him.

Highly recommended. I really loved this book and found it wise, hopeful and written from the heart !

This is a beautiful book. Full of love, pain, struggle, joy…. but always love. These are letters that you will feel are being addressed directly to you, for they are. There is much truth, wisdom and insight offered by way of the authors own contemplative Journey home. A shared journey – a journey home to ‘Nazareth’, the place where ‘God meets us in our deepest desire and need’. A reference book you’ll want to keep close to light the way.
