Book review — Journey back to Joy – Rediscovering Repentance

Book: Journey back to Joy – Rediscovering RepentanceAuthor: Dai HankeyPublisher: 10Publishing/UnionRetail Price: £3 (buy now)
Review by Sheila Stephen1 minute readMarch/April 2018, page 30

Journey back to Joy – Rediscovering Repentance

This is a short little book, part of a bigger series edited by Michael Reeves. Dai unpacks David’s episode with Bathsheba and Nathan, which leads to the confession of Psalm 51. The book is about David’s spiritual journey, but it is also about the mercy of God. Carefully applied throughout, this book will be useful in pastoral care.
