The divine embrace - Christina Rees

What does it mean to say that God is Love? For many, the concept of unconditional love is troublesome, especially in the face of suffering, doubt, alienation, and loneliness, the kinds of hardships that occur for everyone at some time in their lives. We may want to believe it, but struggle to do so. We may start off on all kinds of spiritual searches but still find it ultimately impossible to accept that we are beloved before God. In this beautifully written and compassionate book, Christina Rees argues that the only way we can know God is through our own experience, by embarking on a personal journey of discovery and gradually learning to recognise how God is at work in our lives. Through that recognition we may begin to see the world, each other and ourselves the way God sees us.
