Reflecting on 29 well-known biblical characters "including Moses, Abraham, Bathsheba, Naomi, Pontius Pilate, and Jesus himself" Herbert Driscoll shows how their strivings to live wisely, fully, and joyfully have timeless relevance for us.
In our daily struggles with faith and wilderness, self-worth and failure, courage and guilt, power and weakness, we share much with our biblical ancestors. Learning from their journeys with God can deeply enrich our own spiritual journey.
Herbert O'Driscoll has written many popular books on the spiritual life and Bible interpretation, including God with Us, The Word Today, and Portrait of a Woman. A sought-after teacher, speaker, and broadcaster, he has travelled widely throughout North America, Europe, and the Holy Land. He lives in Victoria, British Columbia.
