I too found Sally Clarkson and then Sarah and Joy at a time when I needed encouragement and help in bringing beauty, order, God, books and family worth into my life. I follow Sarah on Patreon and in her Vicarage blog so it will be lovely to chat with her over this book, which I have not read yet. It was not available in Australia when she did it on her Patreon Bookclub but it is now. Perfect timing! Grace's book is also now available so I get to go back and watch the recording of our chat with her too. Are they pigeons on the latest illustration? They look like the ones that were drinking out of my bird bath this morning.
Sally, Sarah, and Joy have probably been some of the most impactful spiritual companions (from afar) for me during motherhood, and somehow, I'm not surprised to hear that they have been your go-to's for encouragement, too. I keep meaning to explore Sally's subscription site as well!
I'm just so delighted that, since the timing didn't work out for the release of her book in Australia when she covered it on Patron, you'll get another opportunity to chat with her about it here! (Or watch the replay!) And YAY, I'm so glad Grace's book is out for you now, too.
Those pigeon-like critters are turtledoves...little reminders of Candlemas (two doves brought for the purification!)
Of course - the turtledoves to be bought and used in the temple. I also need to watch your latest video which I missed due to the egregious time zone here. Is that available yet?
I'd been considering reading this, but deferred knowing there would be a bookclub selection coming soon. I'll have to miss the discussions, as I get to go to an icon painting retreat the first week of February!
A great choice ❤️
I always love sharing these bookish joys with you, Ishah!
Ahhh Sarah is such a gem! Enjoy!
Isn't she though?! Thank you, Meagan!

We'll have the replays for you, of course! I am SO EXCITED about your icon (!) painting (!) retreat (!!) I'll look forward to hearing more...
