it's normal for a widower to get the blues. What if he happens to be a jaded forty-something parish minister? Yep, he gets himself a sabbatical. Follow the Revd Kevin Birley as he revisits various cultural references: U2, The Matrix, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Tracey Emin, Eddy Izzard and Dr Who. His "friends reunited" dimension delivers more surprises: from model can-do evangelicals to struggling stage actors. Joining an occasional rock band gives time for healing and renewed vocation to "emerge" in his subconscious - all to be tested by the encounters this road story will throw at him.
Mike Burke networks with local congregations for the Church Mission Society having previously served parishes in Sheffield and Gloucester having previously served parishes in Sheffield and Gloucester.
