| An astonishing little treasure. Currie's commentary opens up these Latin poems further to lend them even greater depth and nuance. I am so glad to learn of Martha Marchina and her poetry, and these English translations. ...more | |

Philip Zoutendam's review
of
Dangerous Passions, Deadly Sins: Learning From The Psychology Of Ancient Monks:
"If you’re looking for a little more guilt in your, life this is the book for you. Okholm’s exploration of monastic thought on the seven deadly sins is a tour through one’s own shortcomings, and each stop on the itinerary offers a new helping of shame"

Dangerous Passions, Deadly Sins: Learning From The Psychology Of Ancient Monks:
"(First review: 27 August 2014, 4 Stars. Updated review: 7 May 2020, 5 Stars. MWP)
For someone to wed Psychology and Christian spirituality may sound, for many, doubtful and dubious, especially after the decades-long frictions between the two. But the " Read more of this review » |

| Dated but not invaluable. Belongs to a genre of earlier authoritative voices exploring ways of making sense of the human condition, scientists/practitioners dipping into theology for the purposes of psychology | |

“Bonhoeffer’s permanent legacy as a theologian has been to show that in the modern world, as in Josiah’s and Huldah’s Jerusalem, fostering the discomfiting yet life-giving practice of reading the Bible against ourselves is a major public responsibility of the Christian teacher and theologian.”

“But, as I know that strength arising from obedience has a way of simplifying things which seem impossible, my will very gladly resolves to attempt this task although the prospect seems to cause my physical nature great distress; for the Lord has not given me strength enough to enable me to wrestle continually both with sickness and with occupations of many kinds without feeling a great physical strain. May He Who has helped me by doing other and more difficult things for me help also in this: in His mercy I put my trust.”

“You’ve suffered a long time, yet you continue to stay, not because it’s easy but because you don’t want to hurt the people around you. Every day of your life so far, despite the pain, you have chosen to stay. People rarely talk about this side of suicide, but every time you make that decision not to end things, you’re making a sacrifice that most people can’t even begin to understand. You’re not a coward, you are not taking the ‘easy way out.’ You’re fighting a battle every single day, and you’re doing it out of love. I don’t think you realise just how brave that is. Not only is it an act of incredible selflessness, but it is something quite extraordinary.”
