Giving thanks in all things

RADICAL GRATITUDE:
Recalibrating Your Heart In An Age Of
Entitlement
By Peter Maiden
IVP. 137 pages. £9.99
ISBN 978 1 789 741 858

How do we respond to issues, trials, petty annoyances and lockdown? Does our response mark us as Christians or, when suffering rears its head, do we challenge God and expect a return on all the investments we have made on His behalf ?

The late Peter Maiden (obituary en September 2020) begins this book with an honest account of his son’s serious illness and his battle with the sense that God owed him an answer to his prayers. He then takes the reader on to consider how entitled we feel and the current narcissism in society that feeds this myth.
