Through the Year with Songs of Praise - Hardcover

For the many millions of people who watch Songs of Praise each week, the programme is an important part of their lives. As well as featuring the very best in inspirational music, the programme offers human stories to encourage and inspire. Andrew Barr, who worked as a producer on the programme for over 30 years, understands how valuable it is to hear about the faith journeys of others and to allow ourselves space to reflect on the words of those who have gone before us, whether in the form of scripture, poetry or great hymns. In this book, he invites readers to accompany him on a journey beginning in January and ending in December. He has not written a day by day book, but rather one which follows the seasons, offering reflections and stories from the programme and from his own experiences.

ANDREW BARR worked for the BBC and ITV for over 30 years and produced many editions of Songs of Praise. He is now a freelance writer, whose books for Lion include Songs of Praise: The Nation's Favourite Hymns, Songs of Praise: A Christmas Companion and Songs of Praise: A Lent and Easter Companion.
