Roddy Goes to Church: Church Life and Church People (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780992764203)

No, not a children's book! An affectionate, optimistic look at church life involving, as it happens, Roddy and his friends who live in a small town. Problems and opportunities related to change and outreach are not, of course, unique to their church! Maybe you know Miss Prickly-Cat who pointedly sits in the same pew occupied by generations of her forebears, and perhaps know many of the characters in this look at church life today. A wordy Archdeacon comes on the scene, and Roddy is taken aback by the events following his first visit to church. Roddy's best friend Bushy-Beard says wise things, and he hears an enlightened Bishop . . . Derek Osborne is a retired Church of England minister and an Honorary Canon of Norwich Cathedral. He has worked in a variety of parishes. * Bishop David Pytches writes: A unique spoof on church life. Will you recognise yourself here? ... Derek Osborne's mind here is insightful, his characters graphic and typical and the style acutely comical, but there is a serious message in his madness. Buy this, read it and enjoy! David Pytches, Chorleywood
