Final words of Andrew Watson late Bishop of Guildford.
In Andrew Watson’s final book before his death from terminal cancer, he presents a decade’s worth of Chrism sermons at Guildford Cathedral – the Maundy Thursday sermons he gave as Bishop of Guildford. With characteristic humour and warmth, he reflects on these Lenten Bible passages, bringing gentle challenge and deep insight.
This book also contains Andrew’s ‘four last songs’, his final writings after receiving his terminal cancer diagnosis. This includes his two pastoral letters to his beloved diocese, a confirmation sermon on knowing who you are, and a Lenten reflection on wilderness.
