Jon Thurlow

Living on the edge of the Quantock Hills in Somerset-near a sacred spring and the ruins of an ancient monastic site-I spend much of my time walking, writing, and reflecting. Alongside my work in healthcare, I draw on a journey shaped by years as achurch leader, missional worker, and pastor-teacher. In recent years, poetry and prayer have become the heart of my spiritual practice-companions through seasons of change, loss, and quiet renewal.

I am the author of two books of poetry and two contemplative guides to prayer and spiritual reflection. Resurrection and Return continues a deepening exploration of nature, memory, and the wide, generous love of the Divine.
