Product Overview
The New Testament gospel writers record nineteen resurrection
appearances, from the first encounter with Mary Magdalene on Easter
morning to Paul’s life-changing experience on the Damascus road.
Stations of the Resurrection offers reflections on each of these
episodes from the bestselling poet Malcolm Guite and the much admired
writer and bishop, Guli Francis-Dehqani, accompanied by colour
illustrations from the priest-artist Iain McKillop.
Bishop Guli draws on her first hand knowledge of Middle Eastern culture
to explore these stories and Malcolm Guite offers a sonnet in response
to each of them – many published here for the first time - with
reflections on the texts that inspired them.
This imaginative and inspirational resource also includes the complete
Stations of the Resurrection liturgies from Common Worship Times and
Seasons that commemorate each of the nineteen events, allowing the book
to be used for both personal devotional use and liturgical celebration.
Guli Francis-Dehqani is the Bishop of Chelmsford.
Malcolm Guite is Chaplain of Girton
College, Cambridge. A performance poet and singer/songwriter, he
lectures widely on poetry and theology in Britain and the US and has a
large following on his website, www.malcolmguite.wordpress.com.
