Have a Little Faith

Life Lessons on Love, Death and How Lasagne Always Helps

In her first book, the nation's favourite vicar Kate Bottley reveals the surprising truth about what faith means to her and how, ultimately, it is the key to happiness. As a vicar she is often greeted with the phrase 'I'm not religious, but... I love that hymn', or '... I want a church wedding', but the truth is having faith isn't an all-or-nothing situation and we all deserve to enjoy the parts that bring us comfort. Kate is not your average vicar, in fact, she says herself that believing in the resurrection is 'a bit bonkers' so, whether you believe in God, the universe's plan or simply the goodness of humanity, Kate argues that having belief equals having hope, and we all deserve to feel hopeful. With chapters about what she's learned about life's challenges, including Love, Death, Loneliness and Conflict, along with simple tips for us all to find more joy in our everyday lives, this insightful, warm and joyous book shows that believing in something is what makes us human.
