This is a great book for understanding the experience of doubt in the life of a Christian. I was really helped by the book in my own understanding, and as an added bonus, people thought I was really helpful and insightful when I passed on to them what I learnt from this book :)
I read this book many years ago, and it has had a great influence on my life, in fact I found it so good, I must have given it away to someone. I seem to have bought another copy from Amazon, and that too has disappeared!
Spirituality is affected by grief as it creates a sense of pervasive loneliness and vulnerability prompting repeated questioning of “Why me? Why now? Where is God?” (p131)
