Book Overview
In this book on hope, popular retreat leader and presenter Michael Downey shows how ordinary Christians can find hope in today's world of changing values, a world that seems at times to be in a shambles. The questions Downey asks are ones we've all asked ourselves at one time or another, as we struggle with the challenges of life, the needs of family, friends and colleagues, as well as of jobs and school and home. Given so many challenges, how can Christians live fully in Jesus Christ? Why does hope seem so hard to come by? Just what is hope? What makes hope possible? What does it mean to say that our hope is in Christ?

An Outstanding Source of Comfort and Resolution
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book was suggested to me by a bereavement specialist at a time in my life when all seemed hopeless. I had just suffered through the loss of my dear sister, and any chance of hope seemed remote. I read through the short stories of people's experiences, which the author conveys just as they occurred and were left (i.e., even sans any type of substantial result in the eyes of the reader). These accounts served as a starting point for understanding my grief and that of my loved ones. The author clearly shows how hope plays an important role in each of the scenarios in the book, even in those that seem to end up unresolved. This book should be read by anyone who is grieving the loss of a loved, has grieved the loss of a loved one, or wants to help those who are grieving. Hope not only begins where hope begins --- strength begins where hope begins. And it begins with this book!
