Barefoot in the wilderness

New books

My parents came visiting last weekend, which was nice – especially seeing as they twice took Adam and Ruth out with them for a couple of hours. My father also had some old books that he was getting rid of that he wanted me to look through and see whether there was anything I wanted.

Among the various books (including my old Dr Who comics from when I was younger!) were some books of theology that I’m looking forward to reading.

  • Paul Tillich – The Shaking of the Foundations
  • Hugh Montefiore – Truth to Tell
  • Pierre Teilhard de Chardin – Le Milieu Divin (in English!)
  • Dietrich Bonhoeffer – Ethics and No Rusty Swords

However, before I get stuck into those, I need to finish a book I picked up as last year’s Greenbelt Festival – Jeffrey John’s The Meaning in the Miracles. I heard Jeffrey John speak on this subject at the festival and he was excellent, so I look forward to reading the book.
