Review Quotes: 'When we are faced with letting go of a wayward spouse or child, we need the wisest of companions to comfort, guide, and even challenge us. Dave and Paul are those companions. They give no trite formulas or one-size-fits-all. Instead, they remind us of God's intimate familiarity with our troubles and how he says more than we might think. Expect them to lead you into humble confidence and resilient hope.'-- Ed Welch, Ph.D., faculty and counselor, CCEF
