Lost in Wonder

'People who get "lost in wonder" sometimes can't relate to the messiness of life. Their wonder is reserved for sunsets and saintliness. Morris sees it otherwise. In this heart-warming reflection he opens our eyes to wonder in the most unlikely people and places. And a good job too, or what's the incarnation all about?' Ian Stackhouse, pastor and writer 'A truly magical book that invites us to recapture the wide-eyed wonder of childhood, to reconnect with the power of wonder, and to rediscover the mystery of God incarnate. Morris's poetic reflections lift us above the mundane while opening up the possibility of everyday miracles - and finding God in ordinary and unexpected places. This beautiful book speaks poignantly to the heart and leaves you with the sense of having found something precious that you had lost along the way.' Kate Nicholas, author, broadcaster and preacher. 'Steve Morris's enthralling book begins where the frontiers of most human imaginations end. He has the spiritual and literary originality to take his readers on journeys of theophany - encounters with God - which travel from a lecture theatre at Charing Cross Hospital to outer space with an astronaut, to grieving donkeys and to experiences with every day saints. Marinated in prayer and Scripture, Steve's writings are to the divine experience what David Attenborough's programmes are to the natural world. Both offer revelations to which expressions of wonder are the inevitable reaction, reminiscent of St Francis of Assisi falling to his knees crying "My God and my all!" Steve Morris has written an inspirational, powerful and extraordinary book which is both universal in its appeal yet intimate in its impact upon individual souls.' Jonathan Aitken
