Reflections for the Unfolding Year is a collection of addresses
given by Alan Wilkinson. Roving over subjects from apartheid to
Lent to the ever-evolving image of Mary, he offers a compassionate
response to some of the most painful subjects of the last hundred
years, as well as a thoughtful reflection on the sacraments of the
Church of England, what they have meant to our ancestors and what
they mean to us today. Delving into troubling questions about
doubt, repentance and what it means when God appears to be silent
in times of crisis, he draws on sources from all walks of life in
order to express how Anglicans feel about fundamental issues such
as grief, hope and grace, as well as, most potently, their longing
for God. Alan Wilkinson relates stories about the Church - its
bishops and its believers - with rueful good humour and
thoughtfulness, leading the reader through more than half a century
of his ministry in Portsmouth and elsewhere. His portrait of the
Church of England showcases both the ordinary and the
extraordinary; the prosaic and the poetic. Through his fluent pen,
we come to understand more of the lives of the people in the
Church, such as Desmond Tutu, William Temple and Bill Sargent, who
have made it what it is today: catholic, reformed and liberal.
