Review

'Rowan Williams offers a typically intelligent, attractive, and beguiling picture of what it means to be a Christian... When I read Williams I feel something coming to birth inside me, whispers from a shore I want to set out for.' -- Mark Oakley in Church Times

'Rowan Williams explains the
basis for Christian belief, a task made highly complex because of all the differences and doctrinal nuances held dear within the wider Christian family. He succeeds admirably because, behind his careful explanations, his knowledge is so comprehensive; and faith in Christ is thus wonderfully clarified.' -- The Reader

'Rowan Williams
writes with a gentle strength that witnesses to the joy to be found in being disciples of Jesus.' -- Kate Bottley

'One of today's most
brilliant and profound thinkers.' -- Jonathan Sacks

'Here is
a wise and gentle introduction to Christian thought and practice for those who wonder about it, and for others a discovery of the beauty of a worn and familiar path seen in a pure morning light.' -- Marilynne Robinson, author of Gilead and Reading Genesis

'Rowan Williams never disappoints. His subtle sensibility, profound understanding and luminous prose illuminates the deep and sometimes problematic aspects of Christianity.
A book for believers and non-believers alike.' -- Salley Vickers, author of Miss Garnet's Angel and The Librarian

'No one gets down to the
beautiful essentials of faith like Rowan Williams. This is a compelling, wise and lucid invitation to explore the life-giving possibilities at the heart of the gospel. Discovering Christianity invites us to understand, maybe for the first time, why this particular and extraordinary story is worth building your life on.' -- Sarah Bessey, author of A Rhythm of Prayer and Field Notes for the Wilderness

'
Stunning. Appropriately deep yet somehow also accessible, this is a wonderful place to start for the many people looking for a way into this strange old story.' -- Elizabeth Oldfield, author of Fully Alive: Tending to the Soul in Turbulent Times

'Rowan Williams' Discovering Christianity made me feel like the Ethiopian eunuch in the Book of Acts - ready to go on my way rejoicing.' -- Richard Coles, author of Murder Before Evensong and The Madness of Grief
