Reading together to equip and empower women to share Christ.

More about the book…

The mystical is making its way into the mainstream once more – our cultural craving for all things transcendent, mysterious, sacred and spiritual is taking centre stage. And that's a great thing.

At least, Belle Tindall-Riley, a Gen Z, Christian academic thinks so. Not only does she believe that those cravings for the supernatural are good, but that they're the truest thing about us all.

In The Sacred Ache, Belle takes a read of this cultural moment; exploring the spiritual practices that are making their way into the mainstream and seeking to identify the soul-cravings that are fuelling them as well as the ways our culture is distorting them.

She then puts the wildest, most mystical and soul-fulfilling aspects of Christianity on display for all to see. Rounding off by honestly and vulnerably explaining why Jesus fulfils every one of her spiritual longings, and then some.

How do we choose our books?

Our books are selected by our Book Club team; Nay Dawson, Catrin Trollope, Jo True and Anna Jones. We try to choose books from two out of the three categories each time…

1. Female authors or co-authors

2. A book that encourages or equips us in evangelism

3. A book that engages with a topical issue from a female perspective.

Here are some of the books we’ve read since 2019…
