This looks like a great book. I love the quote from the book that Jolanthe includes in her giveaway post: "It never occurred to me that ignoring God was the thing creating my despair. Instead, I blamed it on him. But once I started talking to God again and nurturing our relationship, my feelings of despair evaporated. I discovered that griping about God does nothing. Griping to God invites him into the conversation.And once he starts talking, it's hard to stay hopeless." {p. 121}

Blessed reading,
Jane
