Description
A fifteenth-century roof boss in Norwich Cathedral depicts a woman holding open the door to a small room, as Julian of Norwich invites us into her cell to share her Revelations of Divine Love. Sheila Upjohn shows us how to accept that invitation in this Lenten guide, as she explores Julian's book alongside passages from Scripture. She reveals how Julian's fresh perspectives on sin and judgement, anger and forgiveness, the Incarnation and the crucifixion - once thought so controversial that her book was kept hidden for centuries - can challenge and enlighten us, six hundred years later, in a world so badly in need of the assurance of God's unconditional love.
The Way of Julian of Norwich is an inspirational guide by Sheila Upjohn to Julian of Norwich and the Revelations of Divine Love that will deepen the reader's prayer life during Lent and throughout the year as part of the Prayer Journey Through Lent series.
About the Author
Sheila Upjohn, a graduate of London University, was born and grew up in Norwich. After ten years in London working in journalism and advertising, she returned to Norwich, by now married and with young children, and for 20 years lived in the Cathedral Close. She helped organise the celebration of Julian's six-hundredth anniversary in 1973, and for many years was a daily communicant in Julian's cell. She is a foundation member of the Friends of Julian of Norwich and has been reading Julian's Revelations ever since she found a GBP1 copy in an SPCK bookshop nearly half a century ago. She has led retreats throughout England, and overseas in Canada, the USA and Australia. Her Australian retreats include the Holy Week at the St Charles Seminary in Perth, Western Australia.
