‘A Revelation of Love’ was written by a woman about whom we know very little, yet she has had an enormous impact on the spirituality of our time, and is now just being rediscovered as a teacher and theologian of great originality and depth.
Born in Norwich in 1342, Julian lived during a time of great suffering, including the Black Death.
Sometime, after having received her revelations, Julian chose the life of an anchoress. Her cell was attached to a church in Norwich. There, reflecting on her revelations, she wrestled with the big questions of life: sin and the place of suffering; love and how it is shown; our eternal destiny and God’s Providence; the role of grace and mercy when we fail.
