Description
On a train journey to a church disciplinary meeting, a minister carries the weight of illness, memory, and the quiet ache of betrayal.
A Measure of Breath is a contemplative novel that explores what it means to lead when one’s own wounds remain unhealed – and when silence in sacred spaces has done deep harm. As the train moves forward, so does a reckoning. Through memory, lament, and moments of hard-won clarity, the Minister confronts not only his past but the cost of survival itself.
This is not a story of triumph but of witness. Of choosing to speak when it would be easier not to. Of breathing, even when breath is pain. A Measure of Breath invites readers to sit with uncomfortable truths: about faith, justice, leadership, and the stories our bodies carry long after words have failed.
Whether you are a person of faith, a survivor, or someone who knows what it is to walk through fire and still serve others, this book is for you. Mark Robinson is a URC Minister in the Broxbourne, Cheshunt and Hertford.
