4.0 out of 5 stars Joy in the midst of lonliness, June 16, 2000

This review is from: Dancin' Toward the Dawn: Discovering Joy in the Darkness of Loneliness (Paperback)

Tim Hansel is a an author who understands what its like to feel alone. For me it was an amazing gift to hear that you can feel alone in the midst of being with people. Here was a famous author and speaker talking about how alone he felt in the midst of a career that most would find successfull and full of ministry. After reading his previous books, this was the first book that allowing me to know that Tim didn't have it all figured out. That he struggled just like the rest of us. Essentially, that he was human. So, this book is for the person that is alot like him. Seeking to grow with the Lord, seeking to work through pain, and seeking to be all that God wants us to be. I have not been this motivated by a book since "You've got to keep dancing" You see we all need to be reminded that feeling alone is ok. That even in the midst of life with thousands of people around you will feel alone. This is a must read book for anyone in ministry or anyone that has ever given, given, given and yet still felt empty and alone.

This review is from: Dancin' Toward the Dawn: Discovering Joy in the Darkness of Loneliness (Paperback)

Tim Hansel is one of the most accomplished Christain authors of our time. His books are "real" and come from his personal pain and life experiences. Reading one of Tim's books is like looking inside his life and understanding how he has turned to God to find answers regarding "Joy in spite of circumstances."

I find all of his books to be exceptional, life guides.

They are particularly adaptive to Sunday School and Bible Study material. They elicit a lot of interest and response.

Thanks for carrying his books
