Such questions are the burdens every pilgrim on the road to God must bear. For those who have faced adversity, endured hard times, and questioned their Christian faith, Robert Benson offers this account of his sojourn in a season of trouble and his journey -- lifelong, arduous, and profoundly joyful -- back to God.In this spiritual self-portrait, Benson's experiences -- battling depression, searching for a truly vital and sustaining relationship to God, and reexamining the deep Christian faith in which he has been immersed since childhood -- become the fluent and poignant testament of one believer's struggle with the mysteries of faith's road. Benson poses every seeker's ultimate question: What am I meant to do with life, that stretch of time between God's creation or "dreaming" of me, and the "coming true", my return to Him?
