All Life Comes from Tenderness

In this new collection of sermons and homilies, Chris E. W. Green reflects with pastoral sensitivity and theological depth on the tender heart of Jesus as the source of all life and joy. Shaped by the church year, the demands of pastoral life, and the sacraments of ordination and confirmation, these texts bear witness to the slow, quiet work of the Spirit, the gift of prayer, and the wisdom found only in the communion of saints. Anchored in Scripture and the many-voiced witness of the tradition, they offer no easy answers or quick fixes, but something much humbler and so more enduring: the call to become the playful, trusting children of God and the promise that there will always be grace enough for the day.
