These sermons were preached for people who find God's Goodness problematic. They speak to those who have tasted and seen the presence of God, yet who struggle with many of the teachings of the church, who have been abandoned, abused or condemned by Christian parents, teachers or priests. Learned, elegant, precise, Wrestling for Blessing reaches out to everyone 'church-damaged and battered by life, who have followed labyrinthine paths to the sanctuary door, and tip-toed back to church'. They are also for church people who have struggled in silence to find God in their own or in others' pain.
