Broschiertes Buch

The Christ Cycle in Verse and 3D

Beschreibung

The Christ Cycle in Verse and 3D is a collection of sixty-five poems on the life and ministry of Christ with thirty-two images of sculpture, also by Toddy Hoare, as stations to be pauses for thought. They are there in tandem as hors d'oeuvres to prompt reflection and digestion of the Word made flesh. While this book does not require a theology degree to read it, it should appeal to those with one or those using the Bible for study, prayer, and worship, or as a resource for quiet days.

Autor

Toddy Hoare trained and practised as a sculptor, served as a soldier with the 15/19 King's Royal Hussars, and spent time with the Missions to Seamen in the Europoort, Holland, before ordination and then twenty-five years as a rural parish priest in North Yorkshire (known locally as Herriotshire, since the author lived in the same group of five parishes). He used sculpture to illustrate Scripture and theology. Latterly, on retirement, he reflected on life and where God was to be found with poetry, some based on peace studies in Oxford. He is now back home in North Yorkshire retired from parish life but taking Sunday services to feed the sheep in a wide radius from home due to the lack of parish priests and the Church of England facing in the wrong direction!
