THE LIFE THAT CHANGED MY DAY
By Hilary Price
Authentic Lifestyle. 171 pages (plus study guide). £6.99
ISBN 1 85078 549 X

This is not my type of book. I would never have read it had I not been asked to review it. I had never heard of the writer, and - shocking confession - I usually read men. This is principally a book for women, anyway, and I suspected it would want to give a touchy-feely message to bruised emotions, and a message that says, 'Life's jolly hard for us women, but Jesus can bring back your smile'.

But here and now, like Nebuchadnezzar, I eat grass. This book is compassionate, challenging, Christ-centred, imaginative and written in a way that makes the writer seem like a friend.
