The Christian life isn't always a walk in the park. Children of Christian parents do die. Christian businessmen do lose their jobs. And husbands of Christian wives do cheat. Being a Christian doesn't protect you from the tough punches life throws.
Taking fourteen strategies from the biblical account of the Israelite journey, Walking with God on the Road You Never Wanted to Travel offers real hope to those on an unexpected, difficult journey. For forty years the Israelites wandered through a devastating wilderness, suffering many losses, and yet learning some timeless lessons. These lessons, presented here as strategies for modern believers, are simply stated, clearly explained, and beautifully illustrated with dramatic and inspiring stories.

The fact that you have picked up this book and begun to read tells me that you're probably on a hard road you never wanted to travel.
Maybe you're sitting in a house made silent by the departure of your spouse.

I want you to take your eyes off the road ahead, do an about-face, and look at your back trail. I know you're worried about the future. You're wondering where this awful road is going to take you and what monsters might be hiding along the way. That's understandable, and we'll get to that.
