The Bible is full of stories about people in very human relationships. Some relationships are good, some are bad; some are healthy and fulfilling, others broken, dysfunctional and destructive. But they all have something in them that can help us to view our own relationships in a clearer light: to explore what they really mean to us, and think about what might happen if they are nurtured or left to decay. In this captivating Lent book, Judith Dimond paints vivid pen portraits of Bible characters whose relationships reflect common predicaments and emotions: love, friendship, rivalry, conflict, trust, hatred and fear, to name a few. Through all these relationships the author traces a repeated pattern of wilderness, death and resurrection, and in each daily meditation she explores one or other element of this threefold pattern. With beautifully crafted prayers interspersed throughout, Friends, Foes and Families will help you to reflect on significant moments of decision in your life, and surprise you into fresh ways of understanding and valuing those around you.
