Oh God, Why?

Gerard W Hughes helps us to look at the notion of a journey as a way of understanding the meaning of our own lives, our grumbles and discontent, our pain and sadness, our hopes and dreams.

He brings the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola into a modern context, so that ordinary people can use them.

Whether you have five minutes or two hours a day for Bible study and reflection, Gerard Hughes has written this book for you. Several practical introductory chapters explore the meaning and value of prayer, Bible study and meditation, and explain how to make the best use of this book.

We learn to pray the Bible in a unique way, and as we enter into the stories they enter into us, and come alive within us in a way that perhaps they never have been.

Includes notes on how to keep your own faith autobiography.
