An honest look at life and faith

About this book

From the Heart brings together a rich selection of articles by Rob Parsons, one the UK's best-loved Christian authors. Most of these were written for his monthly column in Premier Christianity magazine where he shared his thoughts about some of the things that matter to him most. As far as possible, they have been kept exactly as they were when he wrote them.Rob's reflections on the joys, challenges, doubts and fears of everyday Christian life are layered with warmth, humour and messages of hope and encouragement. But it's not all sweetness and light: there are some things that not only make him sad, but angry.Topics include: - Nasty Christians
- Dare to be Vulnerable
- Deal or No Deal?
- Disappointment with God
- God's Will According to Cyril
- Worry Wars
- The Strugglers' Group' From the Heart is searingly honest and wonderfully encouraging. I absolutely loved it!' - Cathy Madavan, author of Irrepressible
