The Anglican Board of Mission β Australia is proud to offer you, Weaving a Stronger Spell. Weaving a Stronger Spell is a new resource for the Season of Creation. Written by Celia Kemp, the celebrated author of previous ABM apps and studies including, Into the Desert, A Voice in the Wilderness and Deep Calls to Deep, Weaving a Stronger Spell challenges us to investigate the spaces we live in and find ways to be part of the healing of creation. Weaving together prophetic wisdom, personal experience, profound faith, and a deep love of nature, Weaving a Stronger Spell (WaSS) invites the reader to journey with the river, exploring where it goes and what it sees. For every user, the journey will be different and the experience unique. This authentically Australian and profoundly mysterious exploration of the need to embrace all that God has made, will change your perspective and lead you to explore the life that resides where you live. βThe books or the music in which we thought the beauty was located will betray us if we trust to them; it was not in them, it only came through them, and what came through them was longing. These things - the beauty, the memory of our own past - are good images of what we really desire; but if they are mistaken for the thing itself they turn into dumb idols, breaking the hearts of their worshippers. For they are not the thing itself; they are only the scent of a flower we have not found, the echo of a tune we have not heard, news from a country we have never yet visited. Do you think I am trying to weave a spell? Perhaps I am; but remember your fairy tales. Spells are used for breaking enchantments as well as for inducing them. And you and I have need of the strongest spell that can be found to wake us from the evil enchantment of worldliness which has been laid upon us for nearly a hundred years.β C S Lewis β The Weight of Glory
