Drawing on examples from the miracles of Jesus to the plays of Shakespeare, Francis Schaeffer to Eubie Blake, Copernican astronomy to the 1973 oil embargo, this wide-ranging narrative has a relaxed, friendly style. Yet it equips readers to develop their own spirituality with clarity and confidence.
