Whilst many of us may wish that God would wave her wand and sort out all our problems, the Bible clearly shows us that
God is not a fairy Godmother! Instead Scripture and Christian tradition offer us the concept of the wilderness with rich imagery to help us navigate the difficult seasons of life. Together we will explore this powerful metaphor, delving into both Old and New Testaments and learning from the wisdom of other writers. As we seek to be attentive to the work of God in our own current and past wilderness times, space for reflection will be created using visual art, poetry and
prayer.
