Joanna’s latest book, It’s All About the Light: How to Find God in Tough Times, contains six life-changing choices for finding God in life’s challenging situations.
Packed with biblical wisdom, practical guidance, real life illustrations, and questions for reflection or discussion, you can use it as a companion guide for her previous book, Light Through the Cracks, or as a freestanding resource, on your own or with others.
As Revd Canon J John says in his Foreword: “To prepare ourselves biblically for tough times isn’t a sign of doubt; it is an act of wisdom.”
In reading this book, you will be empowered and equipped to make choices that could just change your life!
Joanna’s first book, Light through the Cracks: How God breaks in when life turns tough, contains ten true stories, united by a common theme. All of them feature ordinary people encountering God in extraordinary ways, in the midst of challenging situations – sometimes in the miraculous, other times in the seemingly mundane.
Amongst others, the stories include: cancer disappearing without trace; a man defying death, multiple times, following a head-on road collision; cash appearing out of nowhere to keep a church from closing; and a teenager seeing her debilitating illness vanish in an instant.
As you read these stories, you will feel your faith rising for the seemingly impossible.
Joanna explores each theme like facets of a diamond, the light catching and revealing God’s presence with us in life’s toughest moments. Drawing from her own journey and weaving in authentic, inspiring stories from others, she reminds us that prayer is not formulaic but a relationship. So often it can feel as if we have no choice or agency when challenges come, but Joanna brings us hope and practical wisdom. She helps us to encounter God and discover ourselves within the narratives of Scripture … May His light sweep into any darkness and His loving presence shine through you and to those around you.
