Table of ContentsReviews'There could be no better moment for this book, which reminds us that the tangle and connectedness of human lives cannot be broken, and God's relationship with us knows no limits or barriers.' -- Archbishop Justin Welby 'Bishop Rachel's accounts of her encounters with the living Word through friends and communities are not only easily accessible but render the biblical stories she relates refreshingly compelling.' -- Thabo Makgoba, Archbishop of Cape Town 'Encounters is a rare thing: a book by a bishop written from the inside out. Bishop Rachel doesn't preach, she reflects - on scripture, on life, on God - with humour and warmth, with honesty and vulnerability and insight. A perfect book for the middle of a pandemic.' -- Baroness Maeve Sherlock OBE 'Inspiring, enriching and uplifting.' -- Archbishop Justin Welby Author InformationRachel Treweek became the first female diocesan bishop in the Church of England when she was consecrated at Canterbury Cathedral in July 2015 before formally beginning her ministry as the 41st Bishop of Gloucester.
