Sister Wendy Beckett

Spiritual Letters (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

A collection of spiritual letters to young religious on the spiritual life, always laced with sound common sense and good humour.

Apart from her celebrity status as 'the art nun', generated by her television programmes, Sister Wendy has been approached throughout her life for counsel on the spiritual life and the life of prayer. Here, for the first time, are collected some of the finest of her responses in the form of letters, kept and treasured by their recipients over the years.

Sister Wendy herself has written a charming and very personal autobiographical preface in which she sets these letters in their context. This little book is a treasure trove of wisdom and sound simple advice.
