Harvest Of A Quiet Eye Tim Heaton

On Tuesday, 17 March 2020, as the coronavirus pandemic took hold across the UK, the Archbishop of Canterbury announced that public worship in the Church of England would be suspended to help slow the spread of the virus. The following day, and every day thereafter until public worship resumed on Sunday, 5 July, the author emailed a short "thought for the day" to everyone in his church family. And so it was that for a strange one hundred and nine days in the spring and summer of 2020 these reflections came into being. They tell the story of a peculiar time, a period first of fear and later of hope, a time of soul searching, of seeking a greater future for humanity, and dreaming of the better life we would one day resume.
