[Stephen Cottrell] inhabits pastures rich in scripture, peopled by
the greatest and wisest minds of the Church down the centuries, and
grounded in more than thirty years of ministerial experience. His
hinterland embraces the fields of poetry and music and much else
besides. This is catholic writing in every sense.
