God with Us

Rowan Williams, former archbishop, theologian, pastor and poet, has written this marvellous little book on what the cross and resurrection mean.
During Lent 2026 at St Andrew's we will follow Williams' thinking, by reading the book, by listening to sermons, and by studying it in home groups.
