Natalie Williams' latest book "Tis Mercy All - The Power of Mercy in a Polarised World" will be released in June 2024, just in time for our leaders conference. The book aims to help you rediscover the often over looked spiritual discipline of mercy, learning how a proper understanding of God's mercy to ourselves and others is the antidote to our increasingly divided world.
SUMMARY OF 'TIS MERCY ALL
In a world of polarising politics, cancel culture, and social media virtue signalling, we risk losing any sense of what it means to have mercy. And yet Jesus calls us to 'be merciful, just as your Father is merciful' (Luke 6.36).
In this thoughtful and practical book, Natalie Williams explores what it means to be a true mercy-bringer. First, we need to develop a deep appreciation of the mercy of God, which is more astonishing than we dare to believe. As the old hymn says, 'tis mercy all when it comes to God's dealings with his children. Once we have understood that, it will transform the way we see God, ourselves and the world around us. We will be drawn closer to Jesus and, as a result, we will reflect his mercy to a world that desperately needs it.

Endorsements
’Tis Mercy All is one of the most provocative books I’ve read in a long time. Nat takes us on her personal journey of discovering God’s mercy – which is both brutally honest and disarmingly inspirational! As the beauty of God’s heart of mercy unfolds before us we find ourselves propelled into acting mercifully towards others. This book will not only expand your understanding of God’s mercy - it will change your life!
Jeremy Simpkins, ChristCentral Churches
This is a bright, vivid presentation of one of Scripture’s most wonderful themes: the mercy of God towards us, and its implications for the mercy we show to each other. ’Tis Mercy All is challenging yet encouraging, moving yet refreshing, and theologically rich yet practically accessible.
