About the Book

Slow down. Breathe deep. Remember you are beloved. In a world that urges us to do more, hurry up and keep going, Beloved Is Where We Begin offers something beautifully different: a once-a-week pause to rest in God's presence and remember who you really are. This gentle, practical devotional features 52 simple reflections, one for each week of the year, helping you build a sustainable habit of meeting with God that doesn't add to your to-do list, but restores your soul. Rooted in the liturgical seasons of the Christian year - Easter, Ordinary Time, Advent, Christmas and Lent - these short, thoughtful readings invite you to slow down and hear the steady heartbeat of God's grace running through every part of life. Perfect for busy people longing to meet God or reconnect in a way that's realistic, meaningful and kind, Beloved Is Where We Begin helps you find a rhythm of rootedness that can hold you through whatever the week brings - reminding you again and again that you are beloved.

Review :
"In our worrying world and busy lives, faced by constant challenges of work, money, health, relationships, confidence and responsibility, how difficult it is to hear that "still small voice of God" that we know brings calm and comfort. This intuitive, beautifully-written book offers gentle company along the bumpy road of day-to-day life, reminding us that God never lets us stray from the palm of His hand, and that His love is unconditional and forever." "In Beloved Is Where We Begin, Rachael crafts a clear pathway through mental and spiritual uncertainty, reminding us that divine love persists even when our capacity to feel it falters. This deeply personal journey through the liturgical year offers gentle, accessible wisdom for the overwhelmed and weary - you could call it a sanctuary in book form that beautifully demonstrates how our belovedness is not something we earn, but the very foundation from which all healing begins." "This gentle, accessible devotional speaks love and truth in every breath. I felt encouraged, nurtured and loved as I read its words. Far from a superficial read, however, I was equally challenged by insights which exposed where my thoughts and feelings had diverted from God's best. I recommend Beloved for all!" "This book is a wonderful liturgical walk through the year, with gently hopeful reminders of our belovedness and beautiful original prayers and blessings. For anyone feeling ashamed, broken or overwhelmed, this book is pure balm." "Beloved Is Where We Begin is a book that will be beloved by many. It's a life-giving devotional full of Godly encouragement from a deeply authentic author. In its weekly meditations, you'll be invited to soak in your beloved identity as a believer - through every season of life - whilst being reminded that we are most missionally impactful when we're most secure in God's magnificent love. It's full of the healing balm of God's grace that binds up our bruised and broken hearts, and its breath prayers and blessings are beautiful." "This is a gift of a book, so generously crafted and gifted to us by Rachael. To say that we're God's "beloved" is easy, it's central to our faith. But to live it? Now, that's hard. To truly believe such a thing - on our worst days as well as our best days - it can feel painfully difficult. And that's why this book is such a gift. It aids us in dwelling on the truth, giving the love of God the space and time to sink into our bones once more. It's a tender companion, a gentle friend, the wisest company. It's a book that I needed more than I knew." "Rich with blessing and prayer. Resonate with an honesty of life lived and love known. Rachael Newham invites us to fifty-two weeks of wondrous work, of "liturgy", as together we seek to understand the breadth and depth of God's love for each of us. Truly, beloved is where we begin."
