'Broken, desperate and humiliated, I entered the house. When I saw Steve and Katherine, my heart felt like it was going to explode in agony. They did not deserve this madness in their lives ...'

Cut off by a dense fog of post-natal depression and anxiety, Hazel Rolston felt pushed beyond the edge. But when the grim voice of Despair offered her the path of suicide, she knew instinctively that this was not God's way for her.

Hazel doesn't offer us a formula for instant escape. But she does remind us that God is there, even if our feelings say the opposite. No matter how bad things feel, God is faithful to his wounded, broken people beyond the edge.

"Read this book and be changed to reach out with Jesus' compassion." - Alie Stibbe

"As Hazel lays bare her heart, we discover, not slogans or rhetoric, but authentic hope. This gritty, immensely readable book is more than a tonic. It's a lifesaver." - Jeff Lucas

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    In the introduction to her book, Helen Rolston writes about the time she felt pushed ‘beyond the edge’ of her endurance. This is the story of her struggle through post-natal depression, but not only that, the illness of her baby daughter, and the realisation that her depressive state originated way back in her Belfast childhood at the time of the ‘Troubles’. We travel with her as she tells the story of her life, her marriage and the birth of Katherine. Yet through all her trials and traumas one truth shines through, ‘God is there even if our feelings say the opposite. No matter how bad things feel, God is faithful to his wounded and broken people.’ A heart-warming message in a very readable book.
