A book of great imagination and sensitivity, it offers a series of devotional reflections by Chris Thorpe looking intently on a number of simple yet poignant images of hands by Jake Lever. The latter are supplied on an accompanying CD so that they can be used for group or large scale work. The reflections are grouped around the liturgical calendar, Michaelmas – Angel hands, exploring our calling, Epiphany – Magi hands, discerning our giftedness, Holy Week – Christ hands, repairing our relationships, Pentecost – Jester hands, stretching our potential. Each includes a scripture reading, a reflection, and prayers. There is an encouragement to use music as well. But above all, it is the relationship of words and pictures that stirs the mind, embraces the heart, and fires the spirit with fresh perceptions and insights. This book and CD offer a rare resource and its gifts will be appreciated over and over again.
