the follow up to the monastery takes the same idea only this time 4 women spend 40 days with nuns in a convent. the first programme was last night and was equally as compelling as the monastery. the whole episode is online on the bbc two pages. the nuns were great. they came out with some lovely wise words and offered a quiet strength, showing grace and acceptance. and to state the obvious it was a reminder of how much people need god…

if only us across the pond can pick up bbc2 video. i would so enjoy catching up on this and the monastery
It was great!
The one who cried a lot last week (sorry, I forgot her name) can be found at christianmums.com, posting on the experience of seeing the show. She felt it showed a bit too much crying, it wasn’t balanced. That’s TV I suppose, only shows what they think we think is interesting.
thanks paul – really interesting reading her comments… i think she is very brave opening up her life and being so vulnerable. i so hope she finds it all worthwhile and is able to love herself, and accept that she is loved and worthy of being loved…
