The previous volumes in this series featured quotes from the writings of St. Therese of Lisieux, St. Francis de Sales, St. Catherine of Siena, and St. Teresa of Avila. These lovely little books provide a handy pocket-sized volume of hundreds of meditations for prayer and spiritual reading arranged by themes and virtues. They are ideal for anyone to carry with them to use for daily spiritual reading and inspiration.

No sooner had northern Malawians started to become Christians in the late 19th century, than they began to compose hymns. Rather than attempting rational discourse or literary production, their first instinct was to sing and dance their faith. In this book Augustine Musopole offers us the first comprehensive analysis of the theology found in the hymns - a ground-breaking contribution to our understanding of African Christianity.
