An enjoyable evening for launch of ‘On Being Saved’

 

Liverpool Cathedral was buzzing in early July with the wonderfully successful launch of Rod Garner’s ‘On Being Saved – The Roots to Redemption.’ Choral Evensong floated throughout the cathedral and the wine flowed for the event held in a wonderful location.

 

“I read this book in one sitting…the book makes its argument through poetry and anecdote, narrated through a beguiling voice that makes belief seem newly revelatory.” – Revd Dr Alison Milbank, Associate Professor, University of Nottingham.

“Hay’s book is essential reading… He has pinned down the difference between the Dawkins and the Hardy views of evolution.” – William Rees-Mogg, The Times
