"Mayes brings his rich experience of the land of Israel and Palestine and wide spiritual reading to enable us to hear voices rooted in the landscape. These are ancient voices, but at the same time astonishingly contemporary. Expect to be enriched as you embark on this accompanied journey through time and landscape." --Richard Jackson, Bishop of Hereford " Voices from the Mountains takes readers on a fascinating tour of biblical summits: Ararat, Sinai, Tabor, Jerusalem--and more. Through powerful poetic images, the messages of those who have heard the voice of God over the centuries in these 'thin' places are gradually uncovered. This is a rare combination of texts and reflections to read and reread. An adventure not to be missed!" --Stephen W. Need, former Dean, St.

George's College Jerusalem "Voices from the Mountains beautifully links the ancient stability and timelessness of the mountains with words of hope and wisdom. These are particularly poignant at this time, when the dramatic effects of COVID-19 have forced us to look more deeply into our life choices. Listen to these voices which resound and resonate across the centuries, speaking powerfully into today's challenges!" --Helen Bicknell, Churchwarden, Leominster Priory "Mayes's knowledge of the Bible, of spiritual writings down the ages, and of the Holy Land, together with keen pastoral insight into the impact of the pandemic, combine to offer us a key resource for our times. We're invited to enter afresh the vulnerability revealed in Christ and to press on with the eternal perspective of his resurrection." --John Twisleton, author and broadcaster.
