Klappentext Find comfort and joy this festive season with 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. Hopefully this book will remind you to pause, appreciate how far you've come, savour the precious moments, and enjoy a giggle or two along the way. Love, Kate x 'A gorgeous read, it made me cry in a joyous way' Zoe Ball 'Kate's natural warmth, wit and wisdom shines through every page' - Sara Cox 'Thank God for Kate and this book' - Dawn French Zusammenfassung 'Thank God for Kate and this book' Dawn French 'Kate's natural warmth, wit and wisdom shines through every page' Sara Cox The perfect feel-good summer read to lift your spirits ***** Hello there, come on in. Firstly, I know what you're thinking, 'I'm not religious so I'm not sure if this is for me' but, the truth is, we can all benefit from having a little faith and it will look different to each of us. Granted, some of the stories about a man who can walk on water and come back from the dead are anything but normal, but the point isn't about what we believe in, it's about believing in something. It's what humans have always done, it's in our DNA, because having faith in something makes us feel connected. It makes us feel like we matter. Faith means we are in it together, that we believe we will be OK. So, yes, this book is about faith, but it's also about being human, because believing in things is just part of our existence. Wherever you sit on the faith spectrum, I'm here to tell you it's okay. You don't have to sign up to all of something to get something out of some of it. You don't have to like every song on the album. My belief has guided me through life's ups and downs, and I hope that sharing what I've learned will help you face your own challenges armed with hope, and plenty of lasagne. Love, Kate x ...
