This book tells the story of Lyn's House, inspired by Jean Vanier, founder of the L'Arche communities. It is a small Christian house of hospitality and friendship in Cambridge, set in an open community of volunteers and supporters. This is a moving account of its origins and development, and of the friendships it enables.

Arvustused

Once you have established the theological priority of being with, you need detailed examples and practical wisdom that make clear how being with transforms discipleship, ministry and mission. Those are precisely what this inspiring book provides. These pages offer a vivid and moving witness to what truly incarnational living means and to the rewards it offers. -- Samuel Wells, Vicar of St Martin-in-the-Fields and author of A Nazareth Manifesto
