Issues & Inspirations
Poverty robs people of their dignity, agency and power. Church Action on Poverty and its partners work to build a movement in which people and communities can reclaim those essential aspects of life. This anthology of stories, prayers, reflections and liturgy is published to coincide with the organisation’s 40th anniversary and to inspire continuing work towards those ends.
Meditations & Reflections
Reflections, poems, prayers and other liturgical resources written by those supporting refugees in their communities and by refugees themselves. Reflects on the Christian requirement to act justly and deal rightly with the stranger in our midst, seeking the face of Christ in each person.
Books
A book about the original Pearls of Life bracelet. There is a now a new version of the Pearls (available from Verbum Sweden at: https://www.verbum.se/fralsarkransen/fralsarkransen-av-glas-p52634417) where one of the beads is a different colour, but most of this book is still relevant.
Meditations & Reflections
A resource for individuals and groups wishing to explore the Iona Community's integrated approach to spirituality in the space of four weeks. Each week covers an area of the Community's engagement and the days include a 'community experience', a Bible reading, material for reflection, prayers and thoughts to ponder.
Advent & Christmas
Short, structured readings for each day of Advent, not advocating a 'cosy' view of Christmas but rather urging us to use this season to address some of the most important issues of our time.
Meditations & Reflections
These poems provide a powerful resource for personal contemplation and many of them can be used in a group or worship setting.
