David Runcorn draws upon a long Christian tradition of seeing tears as a gift to explore their deeper meaning and purpose, their place in human life and their significance for prayer and spirituality.<br /> <br /> In the early centuries of the church tears were regarded as an extension of baptism or a gift of the Spirit. They were integral to prayer and a vital part of human integration and maturing. Jesus said that those who mourn were 'blessed'. The Language of Tears explores how tears are a natural and important way of processing loss, uncertainty and anxiety, drawing upon theology, scripture, psychology and biology.<br /> <br /> This accessible and sensitive guide is for all engaged in spiritual direction, counselling or pastoral care.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p> </p><p>A rich, moving, thought-provoking treasure of a book. Read this and you'll never utter the words 'don't cry' again. -- <em>Paula Gooder </em></p><br>
