GOD OF THE VALLEY NEW EDITION PB

A journey through grief

Beginning with the toughest question - 'why?' - Steve Griffiths explores suffering and how we can question, rage, weep and eventually find consolation in God's arms, no matter how desolate our situation. Reflecting on the pain of his wife's long illness and eventual death at the age of 36, he writes as one who has personally known prolonged grief, but also as a church minister who has preached and shared pastorally with bereaved families the insights found in scripture.

The Revd Steve Griffiths is Rector of a team of churches near Cambridge, having previously ministered in the Birmingham area, London and Essex. He specialises in youth ministry and has trained youth workers around the world as well as in the UK. Formerly Director of the Centre for Youth Ministry at Ridley Hall, Cambridge, he has written books and articles on pastoral theology and was founding editor of the Journal of Youth and Theology.
