Bishop Peter Price will lead a time of reflection, conversation and worship based around his recently published book, “A Shaking Reality” – daily reflections for Advent.The book takes its inspiration from the witness of Father Alfred Delp who was imprisoned and executed by the Nazis in 1945. Delp was among a small group of courageous men and women who committed themselves to building a new Christian order after the war. “Advent is a time when we all ought to be shaken and brought to realization of ourselves,” Delp reflected. A season when “We may ask why God has sent us into this time?”
Bishop Peter began his ministry in the Diocese of Portsmouth as curate at Christ Church, Portsdown and founder member of the Church of the Good Shepherd, Crookhorn. This time with him will provide us with an opportunity to consider together how we too may find the courage and compassion to face the challenges of our contemporary world and understand a little better why God has sent us into this time.“A Shaking Reality” published by Darton Longman and Todd will be on sale at during these sessions.
