  • Book Recommendation.

'Wardrobes & Rings' (Through Lenten Lands with the Inklings)  by Julia Golding, Malcolm Guite & Simon Horobin  Canterbury Press.Also available as an ebook.

‘Journey through Lent with the insight and imagination of the Oxford Inklings' – a group of writers who re shaped Christian thought and storytelling in the twentieth century.

If you have read any of the books by CS Lewis, JRR Tolkien, Dorothy Sayers & TS Eliot this book will certainly appeal. 

Each short chapter ends with a Biblical reflection to help lead our thinking and praying each day.
