An Altar in the World by Barbara Brown Taylor
In simple practices such as walking, working, resting and waking, Taylor reveals concrete ways to discover the sacred in the small things we do and see. Ancient spiritual understanding is explored afresh and we discover that no physical act is too earthbound or too humble to become a path to the divine. A stunningly beautiful read.

‘Barbara Brown Taylor is a master chef of soul food… she cooks up a rich spiritual feast from the ingredients of everyday life. Devour it with laughter and tears.’ -- Dave Tomlinson, author of How to Be A Bad Christian
