In Journeying Towards Reconciliation, Ruth Patterson blends Scripture with life, life with prayer, insight with inspiration and reflection with a call for action. This is not a theoretical account of why Christians should engage in reconciliation, but a guide as to how to go about it. Ruth’s way of guiding and inspiring us is to look back to the insights of stories from the Bible and use these as practical steps to encourage the telling of the stories of today and the building of the stories of tomorrow. Her reflections are rooted in a deep awareness of the potential of Scripture to become a powerhouse of inspiration in our lives. Scripture is, in a sense, the map that led others on journeys from exile to freedom, from sadness to joy, from despair to hope. It can be a source of hope for those of us who wish to travel a similar journey today.

A Farther Shore invites readers to leave behind any prejudices or preconceptions they may hold and to welcome those who are different with an open heart and an open mind. Set against the backdrop of Ruth Patterson's lyrical reflections and in-depth glimpses of the author's own personal journey, this illuminating work is structured around the premise that Ireland has a destiny that has yet to be fulfilled. The future is based around a call to reconcilation and a love that creates room enough for all.
A heartwarming personal journey that will touch your heart and mind.
Journeying with a Pilgrim God is a CD/tape of some of the poems, prayers and reflections from Rev Ruth Patterson’s two books- 'A Farther Shore' and 'Journeying Towards Reconciliation – A Song For Ireland.' A combination of music and of the spoken word, this CD is a useful tool for periods of meditation and reflection.
