Following God's call to cross cultural mission, Ellis' experience from riots, political upheaval, physical hardship, and burn out, to caring for his wife, Adele, through her Alzheimer's, he would have been unable to hold fast without a robust biblical understanding of God's providence and sovereignty. With feeling and honesty Ellis weaves anecdote with biblical meditation, allowing scripture (especially the pivotal Psalm 2) to form the lens through which the world, in all its frightening chaos, is viewed. A personal, pastoral, faith building read, it offers scriptural reflection not trite answers - robust biblical wisdom for guidance, encouragement and challenge for Christians of all ages and stages.
