Dancing to the Heartbeat of God

The Archbishop of Canterbury's Lent Book for 2026.

Dancing to the Heartbeat of God is a vibrant and inspiring exploration of Christian discipleship in today's world. Bringing together around thirty contributors from across the globe, this rich volume reflects the breadth, diversity, and vitality of the Anglican Communion. With a foreword and afterword by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dame Sarah Mullaly, and an introduction by the Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell, it offers a confident and hopeful vision of faith lived out in everyday life. Through personal stories, testimonies, and reflections, the book explores what it really means to follow Christ: listening for God's rhythm, responding with courage, and sharing faith with others in authentic and creative ways. Rooted in real experience rather than abstract theory, these voices speak with honesty, energy, and hope. Written to encourage the Church of England and Anglicans worldwide, Dancing to the Heartbeat of God is an invitation to rediscover the joy, movement, and missional heart of Christian discipleship today.
