This beautifully illustrated book explores the three basic questions we all ask at some point: who are we; how do we fit into the universe; and who's in charge here. The writers of the Psalms asked the same questions three thousand years ago, and we're still trying to figure it out. This book doesn't claim to answer these existential questions, but sometimes, in order to get closer to an answer, it helps to ask the questions in a different way. The meditations in this book were written to be read aloud as part of an Anglican Sunday service, although many are not strictly Christian in outlook. They are sequenced by the seasons and religious festivals of the year, and explore a wide variety of topics: love, hate, violence, greed, injustice, spirituality, life, suffering, and death. They are not written in what the author calls church-speak, but in everyday language, and are addressed directly to God, because, after all, that's who we're talking to. The illustrations are inspired by the illuminations of medieval manuscripts, and provide and extra dimension to the meaning of the text.
