It felt as though every nerve in my body was popping. Imagine large
strong hands slowly applying pressure while breaking a family-size
package of uncooked, dry spaghetti. I was the spaghetti. Breaking
down one piece at a time. This is how Juanita Rasmus begins the
wise, frank, and witty account of what she later called "The Crash"
and what her counselor labeled "a major depressive episode." This
experience landed Juanita, a busy pastor, mother, and community
leader, in bed. In addition to exhaustion and depression, on the
spiritual front she experienced a dark night of the soul. When
everything in her life finally came to a stop, she found that she
had to learn to be-with herself and with God-all over again. Pastor
Juanita writes from her life with kind attention to the life of the
reader. She offers both practical and spiritual insights but never
pat answers. If you are longing for a trustworthy companion through
dark days, this book is here for you. Each chapter includes
life-giving spiritual practices to help you discover your own new
ways of being.
