Good book about how scripture and the life of Jesus Christ can show us a way through our tough stuff. Everyone has difficulties and the Bible can help. ( )

Second time to read this book. It is divided into short chapters and covers; temptation, misunderstanding, anxiety, shame, doubt, divorce, remarriage, confrontation, pain, prejudice, hypocrisy, inadequacy, disqualification and death. The author uses stories from the Bible to support his advice to those suffering the various trials that we all face at some time in life. The reader is left feeling as though they are not alone in suffering as God is never very far away. I especially liked the true story of the blind boy named John at the end. Wasn't so keen on the frequent references to the Passion of the Christ movie and exhortations to watch it.

Very easy to read with useful advice and supported by scripture. Recommended to all Christians struggling with any of the above.... ( )

Christian reading with the right touch of everyday humanity ( )
