This book pulls no punches - it is clear on the reality and depths of pain that Christians suffering from depression often go through. The book is also equally powerful in its' wonderful medley of advice and comfort from Scripture, Spurgeon, and Eswine himself. This is an ideal book for those who suffer from depression, and also for those with loved ones who suffer. This is not a self-help guide, nor is it offering a cure or quick fix, but it is offering comfort and “realistic hope” from one pilgrim who has already walked the painful road.
