‘A moving story of courage and faith in the fire’. BEAR GRYLLS
What do you do when life falls apart and it feels as if God has left you? How do you keep going when your faith is rocked to the core?
Sometimes things get so hard we’re not sure where God is – or what he’s up to. Patrick was facing pain, illness and loss in his family and community; then a series of excruciating operations took him to the brink – physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Writing during his journey of recovery, Patrick reflects on the true nature of courage as he explores:
– how we find God in times of suffering
– how we can know God’s peace when life is anything but peaceful
– how we allow ourselves the grace to rest when we’re running on empty
– how we can stay fully present in the moment.
In doing so, he heartens and encourages us to grasp the love of God at an ever-deeper level.
