God in All Things by Gerard Hughes

God in All Things is a timely sequel to God of Surpries, the classic bestseller. Nearly twenty years on, in a world of accelerating change and deep confusion, comes this book of reflections for our inner journey. It goes to the heart of the contemporary Christian crisis: the split nature of our spirituality. God, the ground of all things, is vibrant in every atom and creation itself is a manifestation of the reality of God. Yet we have confined God to 'religion', showing great reverence in our formal worship while ensuring that God does not interfere in everyday matters. God in All Things invites the reader to meet God, who is always greater than all our expectations yet closer to each of us than we are to ourselves, and who beckons us to become at one with God. Gerard Hughes speaks to the disillusioned, confused and despairing and helps us all to keep discovering this loving God of the Impossible.

OF GOD OF SURPRISES:

"One of the great books of spiritual guidance- a book to be used by those who find it hard to forgive themselves: the stumblers and agnostics who hardly dare believe that God is within them."

Gerald Prestland, writing in 1985
