- The Archbishop of Canterbury's Lent Book 2017

Bag om Dethroning Mammon: Making Money Serve Grace

Each year the Archbishop of Canterbury chooses a religious author to write his Lent book, for which he provides the foreword. This year however Archbishop Justin Welby will write the book himself, constituting his first major book project. In Dethroning Mammon, Archbishop Justin asks the question ''On what cross will we be crucified? The Cross of Christ - the cross of wood - or the Cross of Mammon - the cross of gold?'' The former leads to new life, the latter leads finally to death. Following the Gospels towards the Easter story, this book asks the reader what it means to put away the cross of gold, to dethrone Mammon in the values and priorities of our society and in our own lives, and through Lent to come to a new place of trust in the abundance and grace of God.
