Advent Books 2022: Discussion and Readings
Join Church House Bookshop on Wednesday 23 November at 7pm to hear Nicholas Holtam talk about his Advent book Sleepers Wake: Getting serious about climate change.
Join the Church House Bookshop for this online event to hear Claire Gilbert in discussion with authors Nick Holtam and Andrew Nunn about their new Advent books.

Nicholas Holtam retired as Bishop of Salisbury and the Church of England's lead bishop for the environment in 2021. He is the author of The Art of Worship: Paintings, Prayers, and Readings for Meditation and A Room with a View: Ministry with the World at Your Door. Sleepers Wake is his first Advent book.
Climate change is the most important, urgent issue of our day – but while there are technical and political issues, the fundamental problem with the fight against climate change is spiritual.
In Sleepers Wake, the Archbishop of York’s Advent Book for 2022, Nicholas Holtam explores how we can combat the obstacles to tackling the reality of climate change. With exhilaration and passion, he draws on his experience as former Church of England lead Bishop for the environment to urge us to transform ourselves, spiritually and culturally, so we can all do our part to preserve our world for future generations.
