A Deep, Abiding Love: Pondering Life's Depth with Julian of Norwich by Jennifer Lynn Christ. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781627853156.

All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well. Even people who know very little about the 14th-century anchoress Julian of Norwich have heard that famous quote. But what relevance can such certain confidence in God s goodness and love have for us who are faced daily with a divided, hurting world? In this very insightful and prayerful book, Jennifer Christ draws parallels between Julian s times and ours and demonstrates how Julian s message of hope and joy in God s neverending love for us can give us strength and hope. Scholars have called Julian a theological optimist. If you need to hear of God s deep, abiding love for you, and that all shall be well in God s greater plan for your life, spend time with this book reading Julian s words, praying with them, pondering, and journaling, and letting her hope-filled message take root in your heart.
