Wild Goose Publications The Road Chosen: Poems, stories and reflections
Book SynopsisJesus unflinchingly walked the road that he had chosen, knowing its cost. In our lives we find ourselves on roads not always of our choosing, often puzzling, sometimes full of light when faith seems easy, sometimes darkened and troubled. As we journey through the events of Holy Week we find Jesus sharing that human perplexity and struggle, always fully engaged, determined to accompany us on the journey that lies ahead, giving us confidence to pray and act for the needs of those close to us and for the needs of the world. Janet Killeen uses a variety of perspectives to get close to the events of Holy Week. Some of the events are far from holy: treacherous, hostile and increasingly isolating for the Man at their heart, who comes to us in his isolation, in confrontation and rejection, in the sorrow and anguish he experienced, so that we might never be alone. Janet Killeen studied English and American literature, and taught in a London comprehensive school for over thirty-five years. She has published poems, short stories and two novels, and is a regular contributor to Wild Goose books.

Wild Goose Publications Redeeming Our Cracks: Prayers, poems, reflections
Book SynopsisLiturgical and practical resources from Iona Community members, friends and others designed to create more awareness and understanding about mental health. I have never known anyone who hasn't experienced a mental health problem at one time or another. So to me this book is simply about being human. There are worship resources for services on mental health here, but I think a lot of the resources could, should be used in any worship service. And I hope some of it the beautiful gutsy poems and powerful reflections is used well beyond church. Much of it comes from the edge anyway 'From the IntroductionRedeeming Our Cracks is a book about seeing beauty in brokenness and strength in vulnerability.You come,walking amongthe brittle fragmentsof our broken lives,gathering up every sharp shard,to fashiona new and beautifulmosaic.

Wild Goose Publications Strange Majesty: The hymns of Leith Fisher
Book SynopsisIf ever a book was written about Leith Fisher's life, it would need numerous chapters to cover his many gifts, interests and life experiences. Leith was a parish minister in the Church of Scotland in Glasgow and Falkirk, a member of the Iona Community, a broadcaster, contributing to BBC's Thought for The Day; he served on presbytery committees, and was Convener of the General Assembly's Panel on Worship. He was a gifted speaker (and also a gifted listener) and his pastoral abilities were legendary. In a tribute to him following his death in 2009 Leith was described as one of the ablest ministers of his generation'. For all his activity, Leith was also at his desk, sometimes late into the night, writing poems, articles, reports, life-changing letters, gospel commentaries, prayers and hymns. Seven of these were included in the fourth edition of the Church Hymnary (2005), and hymns like For your generous providing' and Christ is our light' are now established in the song of the church. At his death Leith left a number of unpublished songs and hymns, the best of which editor Douglas Galbraith has had the privilege of bringing together here, with Leith's pieces from CH4, in this collection. Like most good hymns, these started life in a local parish or situation, and explore themes not easily found in the standard repertoire. They are set not only to known hymn tunes but to traditional Scottish melodies, including from the Hebridean tradition, which was a much-loved part of the author's musical landscape. It is hoped that these songs will add to the quality and breadth of the praise and prayer of the church. Douglas Galbraith has edited several publications, including Leap, My Soul, hymns from Africa gathered by Tom Colvin; Worship in the Wide Red Land; The Church of Scotland Year Book; the church music magazine Different Voices, and was on the editorial committees of Common Ground and the Church Hymnary (CH4). He is a retired minister of the Church of Scotland and of the Uniting Church in Australia, and is a member of the Iona Community.

Wild Goose Publications Grace Will Walk Us Home
Book SynopsisWe may read the Bible to score political points. We may read it to get ideas for addresses and talks. But how often do we read the Bible to feed our heart and soul?In over 30 years of ministry Thom Shuman had taught studies on just about every book in the Bible and had gone through the cycle of Sunday readings many times. He'd spent a lot of professional' time in the Bible, but realised he'd never really read the Bible from beginning to end to feed his spiritual life. So that's what he did, each day discovering a word, phrase or verse which spoke to him, letting it play around in his mind, and then writing a short prayer or nudge'. At the end of the year, he had 365 of them, which are shared with you here. I hope they speak to your heart and soul in some way,' Thom says. you begin bycrafting graceout of chaos;grace isthe best friendwho never abandonsus;grace will walkus home toyou.

Wild Goose Publications Voices Out of Lockdown
Book SynopsisDuring the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown in spring 2020, many people turned to writing: diaries, letters, cards, poems. Human words, sent out across the void of our isolation, shouted into the storm over which we had no control. What we could do was communicate with each other, raise our voices against the silence of separation, argue with our own doubts, call out to God, express our fragile hope. Here are the voices of just a few members and associates of the Iona Community with poems, psalms, songs, affirmations of faith and prayers written during a full and fraught ten weeks. We offer these human words believing that when the darkness seems overwhelming, light dawns; that into the silence of our worst fears God speaks a living Word. Also contains the song We Will Meet' by John L Bell & Hans-Olav Moerk.
