Sarah Mullally: Healing Hands, Sacred Calling - The True Story of the Nurse Who Became the Archbishop of Canterbury
From the hospital ward to the altar of Canterbury Cathedral - the extraordinary true story of a woman whose life redefined faith and leadership.
Before she ever wore a clerical collar, Sarah Mullally wore a nurse's uniform. She began her career caring for the sick, working through long nights at St Thomas' and the Royal Marsden Hospitals, where compassion and precision became the hallmarks of her service. Rising swiftly through the ranks, she became England's youngest-ever Chief Nursing Officer, a woman at the heart of the nation's healthcare system.
But even as she reached the height of her profession, a quiet spiritual calling stirred within her - one that would lead her from the world of medicine into the sacred world of ministry. Her decision to leave a prestigious government post to follow her faith shocked many - yet it marked the beginning of one of the most remarkable transformations in modern British history.
From parish life in Battersea to the grandeur of Salisbury Cathedral, from her consecration as Bishop of Crediton to her groundbreaking appointment as Bishop of London, Sarah Mullally's journey has been defined by humility, courage, and conviction. Now, as the first woman to become Archbishop of Canterbury, she carries both the weight of history and the hope of renewal for a changing Church.
Sarah Mullally: Healing Hands, Sacred Calling reveals the woman behind the headlines - a nurse, a pastor, and a reformer whose compassion continues to bridge the worlds of science, faith, and humanity.
If you're inspired by true stories of purpose, faith, and leadership against the odds, this book will stay with you long after the final page.
