Bread Grows in Winter

“This book, first published in 1970, has been a source of inspiration to me. During my first few years of episcopacy I often took it with me on journeys, as a travel companion.... Trying to work out how to exercise the ministry, I found in Görres a sure guide unfailingly summoning me to focus on essentials.... The publication of Görres’ work in English is a major event full of promise for the Church’s mission, at once ancient and ever new, ‘to carry forward the work of Christ under the lead of the befriending Spirit’.”
