"It
is utterly crucial that in our darkness we affirm the wise, strong hand
of God to hold us, even when we have no strength to hold him."
---John Piper
Even
the most faithful, focused Christians can encounter periods of
depression and spiritual darkness when joy seems to stay just out of
reach. It can happen because of sin, satanic assault, distressing
circumstances, or hereditary and other physical causes. In When the Darkness Will Not Lift, John Piper aims to give some comfort and guidance to those experiencing spiritual darkness.
Readers
will gain insight into the physical side of depression and spiritual
darkness, what it means to wait on the Lord in a time of darkness, how
unconfessed sin can clog our joy, and how to minister to others who are
living without light. Piper uses real-life examples and sensitive
narrative to show readers abundant reason to hope that God will pull
them out of the pit of despair and into the light once again.
