Alone on an 8-day retreat in the Egyptian desert, Justine Allain Chapman experienced first-hand the physical, spiritual and mental struggle many have endured before her. A Lenten pilgrimage is testing. Our own desert experience may involve attending to challenges that come upon us suddenly--such as an illness or bereavement--or a difficult relationships or patterns of thinking that have long been draining us of life and joy.
But there is a "bright flame before us, a guiding star above". We have to search within ourselves for answers which lie hidden, to draw on each other's strengths, to reflect deeply and to trust that we will be enabled to integrate our many experiences. And the God, who always calls us to love beyond ourselves, offers tender healing for our brokenness, longing that we may be consoled and renewed.
This vividly written book includes wide ranging prayers and scripture
