Kaye P. McKee (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 1, 2006

How do we go on when we feel that God has walked out on us? When God Walks Away explores and celebrates one of faith's great mysteries. Each meditative narrative begins with an image for the the dark nights of the soul that we all experience. McKee then explores that image with examples from scripture, personal experience, literature, music, and Christian history. This companion is accessible to any Christian, including a broad spectrum of believers who have no previous experience with classic Christian spirituality and mysticism.

This review is from: When God Walks Away: A Companion for the Journey Through the Dark Night of the Soul (Paperback)

This book is very well written in simple language for all to understand. While it is not a long book, it requires thinking and contemplation. It is truly a work written from the author's heart and personal experiences. I like the suggestions of art, music and cinema to enhance the reader's understanding of the material. Kaye is a wonderful writer. This book would benefit anyone who has gone through an experience of depression or other tough times in their lives. Kaye helps the reader know there is hope and God never leaves us, but we sometimes walk away from God.
