As the Vicar of Savernake Forest Colin Heber-Percy is well known locally. He is also the author of Tales From a Country Parish - reflections and meditations on the way we live written in lockdown which became a bestseller for independent bookshops. Colin will be talking to Andrew Rumsey, the Bishop of Ramsbury, about his gentle, funny, and life-affirming new book, Lost in the Forest: Notes on Not Belonging, followed by questions from the audience and a book signing. This book is a hymn to getting lost. Drawing on his experience as a troubled schoolboy, a burnt-out screenwriter at the BBC, an 'awkward' priest in the Church of England, Colin Heber-Percy reflects on the value of not belonging...  We all share a desire to belong. There's reassurance and safety in knowing who we are and where we fit in. But at significant moments in our lives - a new job, new school or an unexpected change of circumstances - or just in the ruts and routines of everyday life, we can experience a sense of not belonging, of dislocation, of being lost in a forest. But, there is another way to approach these uneasy moments.
Rather than fearing the forest, Colin discovers great value and creativity there. Join parish priest Colin Heber-Percy in an invitation to get lost - to lose the labels society and institutions use to box us in - and to relish the liberation of losing our way in the world. Blending anecdotes from parish life, with philosophy, literature and tales from his local Savernake Forest, Colin argues that there is an overlooked richness, a spirituality and a freedom to be found outside the boundary lines our culture sets for us.
