Bishop Stephen is well known for his interest in the Arts. In Christ in the Wilderness, he reflects on five of Stanley Spencer's 'Christ in the Wilderness' paintings, and reveals them to be a rich source of spiritual wisdom and nourishment. He invites us to slow down and enter into the stillness of Stanley Spencer’s vision. By dwelling in the wilderness of these evocative portraits, Stephen Cottrell encourages us to refine our own discipleship and learn again what it means to follow Christ. His most recent book, Walking Backwards to Christmas, was inspired by a 'Nativity' painting of Albert Herbert.
