Love's Endeavour, Love's Expense: The Response of Being to the Love of God

A reflection on how individuals and communities respond to the love God has for Creation - a great work of practical theology and spirituality. One of the most influential and best-loved spiritual books of the twentieth century concludes in these celebrated words: Morning glory, starlit sky, soaring music, scholar's truth, Flight of swallows, autumn leaves, memory's treasure, grace of youth. Open are the gifts of God, gifts of love to mind and sense; Hidden is love's agony, love's endeavour, love's expense. W.H Vanstone is also the author of The Stature of Waiting and Fare Well in Christ.
