Why do we want to share our memories? At a time when an increasing number of people are living longer, for some, later years may be enjoyed as ripe old age. For others, they may be a time of uncertainty, isolation and loneliness. For both, memories can be a resource from the past which enables us to live in the present. For that to happen, memories need to be shared. An Anglican priest for sixty years, Neville Smith seeks a Christian understanding of what it means to be old. Through the Bible, the Church and his own personal experience, he describes the epiphanies of faith, which we can find in many different areas of life as we grow older and as things change around us, leaving us behind in an unfamiliar world. The Church must also move on. As it does so, this book comes as a timely reminder that in looking increasingly to the future, the Church must not neglect those who have formed its past.
Eddie Ginley is a Liverpool bingo caller who dreams of being an actor. When he celebrates his birthday by placing an ad in the local paper someone sends him a present - a gun, some cash and a picture of a girl. Now his dreams have turned into nightmares.
Prayers for People in Hospital consists of a wide-ranging collection of case histories, each based on actual events, covering the numerous areas of work within the modern hospital. The narratives relate not only to the patients, but also to those involved in every aspect of the hospital, including medical care and support services. Each case is accompanied by a specially written prayer or meditation with, in some instances, appropriate short Biblical quotations taken from the REB. Inan introductory chapter, Neville Smith addresses the often difficult questions that arise when praying in the context of the situations that arise in hospital. This is a unique, stimulating, and often deeply moving book that will aid all who seek to deepen their prayers and understanding in this field, and it will be an invaluable aid to all who lead corporate worship.
