This is a personal narrative about growing. It is also about growing up, which does not necessarily follow. Some grow in wisdom; some grow in foolishness; some grow in the grace of God. Some only grow old, without much else. The tale it tells touches three centuries: the nineteenth, the twentieth, and the twenty-first. May it bless you and cheer your journey through this mortal life.

In premodern English law, felons had the right to seek sanctuary in a church or ecclesiastical precinct. It is commonly held that this practice virtually died out after the medieval period, but Shannon McSheffrey highlights its resurgence under the Tudor regime and shows how the issue lay at the intersection between law, religion, and culture.
