Description
Book SynopsisA joyous collection of life lessons from the UK''s favourite vicar! The perfect gift for fans of Kate Bottley and her charm, wit and wisdom.
Hello there, come on in.
I know what you're thinking: I'm not religious, so I'm not sure if this is for me'. But the truth is, this book is simply about being human. Believing in something, no matter what it is, gives us hope, and that's what helps us get through this messy, joyful, unexpected ride we call life.
Over the years I've sat on plenty of sofas, drunk plenty of (questionable) cups of tea and learned endless lessons from the wonderful people I've met. Above all, they have taught me that there is no right way to do things and that's OK. In these pages I have shared everything I have learned about how to deal with life's biggies like love and death, as well as confidence, conflict and loneliness in the hope that I can make you feel less alone and arm you with the tools to face the tougher times.
