At one time or another, every Christian goes through a period which
is referred to as a "desert experience"-a time when they feel
forsaken by God, in doubt about what God would have them do, a
period of darkness of the soul. Many, during those times, feel they
are alone in this experience, but this thought-provoking book shows
readers that they are not alone-that in fact, many well-known
Christians have been there also. Featuring personal testimonies
from each contributor, "The Desert Experience" offers readers
encouragement and valuable lessons from those who have made it
through the "desert"-lessons of hope, humility, goodwill, and the
sovereignty of God -all lessons necessary for the maturing of a
Christian.
