About the book
'I suspect that God of Surprises will soon be recognised as one of the great books of spiritual guidance. it is a lovely, wise and lucid book of deep humanity. Above all, it is a useful book- a book to be used by those who find it hard to forgive themselves; the stumblers and agnostics who hardly dare believe that God is with them,' - Gerald Priestland.
