The Mystery of Everything: A Lent Course based around the film The Theory of Everything
The Mystery of Everything is a new and original Lent course by Hilary Brand, which takes the multi-awarding winning film about Stephen Hawking, The Theory of Everything, as its starting point. The course explores ways in which the mysteries of the universe and of everyday life - and the acceptance that we have more questions than answers - can reinvigorate our faith and spiritual journey.
The course is based around five weekly group sessions * The experience of wonder * The enigma of weakness * The complexity of relationships * The encounter with frailty * The hope beyond brokenness
Each session includes an extract from the film, group discussion questions and a meditation. There are also short introductory and follow up chapters for individual reading each week, and a chapter of Bible passages for further daily reading. The book supplies full notes for group course leaders.

Pretty good overall, a different approach to Bible Study. Would certainly recommend as a Lent course or for somebody interested in quantum physics, the Universe, science meets religion, Stephen Hawking or just a bit of provocation.
