Beautiful Things Can Emerge from Life Not Going as Planned When
life takes one too many unexpected turns, do you find yourself
saying, "I don't know who I am anymore"? In the wake of shattered
dreams, do you wonder how you will keep going-and if you'll ever
find purpose or joy again? After infertility, an international
move, and a professional change shook Sheridan Voysey's world, he
realized that he couldn't reconcile his expectations with the life
he was living. Feeling lost, he decided to pair his spiritual
journey with a literal one: a hundred-mile pilgrimage along the
northeast coast of England. Inspired by the life and influence of
the seventh-century monk Cuthbert, Sheridan travelled on foot from
the Holy Island of Lindisfarne to Durham. Taking his friend DJ
along for the journey, and keeping a journal by his side, Sheridan
discovered not resolution but peace. Not ambition but purpose. Not
shouts of convictions but whispers of the presence of God. In The
Making of Us, Sheridan invites us to join him as he walks along
England's shores and we trace the borders of our own hearts. Part
pilgrim's journal, part call to reflection, The Making of Us
eloquently reminds us of the beauty of journeying into uncertainty,
the freedom of letting go, and the wonder of losing our identity
only to discover who we really are.
Your dream might be over, but your life isn't. Embrace your broken
dream as a chance for a new beginning and see how a "Resurrection
Year" can restore your soul. After ten years of tear-soaked prayers
and repeatedly dashed hopes, Sheridan Voysey and his wife come to a
heart-breaking conclusion: their dream of having a child is over.
Empty and confused from a decade of disappointment, they leave
their jobs, pack their bags, and embark on a journey in search of
restoration. Voysey chronicles the couple's return to life. From
the streets of Rome to the Basilicas of Paris, from the Alps of
Switzerland to their new home in Oxford, Voysey and his wife begin
the healing process while wrestling with their doubts about God's
goodness. Voysey's story is beautiful, uplifting, and deeply
thoughtful, assuring us that even after the most dead and shattered
of dreams can come wonderful, invigorating new life. Resurrection
Year: Offers real and universal hope for those who have faced
disappointment Is for anyone who has experienced their own broken
dream, whether it be unwanted singleness, infertility, the loss of
a loved one or the loss of a career Shares the emotive, poetic, and
at times humorous discovery of the healing qualities of beauty,
friendship, and love One-part spiritual memoir and one-part love
story, Resurrection Year is an honest, heart-felt book about
recovering from broken dreams and reconciling with a God who is
sometimes silent but never absent.
