This is a story of depression. It has grown out of the author's experience of clinical depression, and focuses on this in an attempt to bring hope to people who struggle with this problem. In so doing it gives expression to the author's journey of faith, reflected most obviously in his movement from being a Baptist pastor to becoming an Anglican priest. Part of the story relates to movement towards social justice. Thus the story reflects a convergence of concerns for social justice and emotional wholeness. The book is structured around reflections on biblical passages gathered under the topic of hope. These do not stand alone, but weaving through them is a human story of struggle with depression, set in the larger story of a journey of faith. The book's unique character is its combination of biblical exposition with autobiographical reflections on depression. It is from a position of vulnerability - yet where significant healing has taken place - that the author makes an offering of hope.
