Publisher's summary

On May 8, 1373, 30-year-old Julian of Norwich, sick and near death, had a series of visions of Christ. In these 16 visions she learnt about God's loving nature. God in Julian's visions was not angry and wrathful. Instead, the three properties of God were presented as life, love and light, and all of His creation was good, including his servant, man. In Julian's version, Man is not to blame for his sin; instead it is something that he must experience and overcome in his spiritual journey with God.

The version of Christian theology presented in Revelations of Divine Love - the first published book in English attributed to a woman - was highly liberal and incredibly progressive for its time. The book contains some of the most profound spiritual writing ever written and remains a perennial favorite among Christians.

Love it

Uplifting and fascinating. Julian of Norwich might be my favorite Christian Mystic. I also think being an anchorite is a fascinating existence.

A game changer!

I found the revelations given to Julian of Norwich the closest to revealing what my heart desires above all
to understand. That is, who God is, his very essence, and what the Scripture means in 1 John 4:7-21 when John says “God Is Love”. Understanding this better is a game changer for me in how I relate to him and to others. I am grateful to God for this book!

A constant companion

Years ago, I began to read the original translation but did not finish it. After my husband passed on, I began again and listened to its audio accompaniment while underlining my book. This new translation is perfect and the audio so comforting. It is truly a match made in heaven to bring us heavenward. Her message is healing, inspiring, and a great way to live. St Julian of Norwich is assuredly proud of you both! Thank you.

LOVE

This is an amazing book. I love this new translation and the narrator is PERFECT. I listened to it and immediately started it over and listened again. As an aspiring mystic I have been reading everything I can find on the subject. While this is not a "how to" like some others (e.g. St. Teresa), it is so inspiring and I could feel the love of God as I listened. Just a wonderful experience.

The mystical love of God

Well done. It is difficult to read the old language, but here, it is easily listened too.
