'Easy to read, demanding to put into practice: it's the sort of book that could change your life.'

David Winter, author, evangelist, former Head of BBC Religion.

It has been said that God does not see you as a failure; he sees you as a learner. Yet there are so many books on the market, including the Christian market, that tell us how to succeed and be ever victorious.

Who has never asked, 'Why me, Lord?' When we are honest and truthful we all know we have areas of weakness and failure and disap-pointments. This is true of our human experience - it is true of biblical experience.

Why Me, Lord? is an honest, down-to-earth, tho-roughly biblical book that deals with life as it is for Christians, warts and all.

Michael Apichella honestly explores the experiences and disappointments that we all meet at some time. He encourages us to see that this is a normal part of Christian experience and growth. He shows us what the Scriptures teach about such experiences, why they happen and how we can use them and learn from them to follow Jesus more closely.

Failure is here to stay. This book helps us under-stand what failure is all about, why we meet failure and how as Christians we can fail successfully, and learn to be faithful disciples of Jesus.

This book was an excellent reminder that God still loves and welcomes us even in events of failure. Apichella shares his own personal vignettes (and is able to laugh at some of his own self-noted errors) as well as those of people he has known who have experienced failure but have risen again. The author also shares lots of scripture to remind us of all the failure present in biblical history--to tell us, "Hey, we are not alone here... failure has occurred for centuries!" Apichella also reminds us to talk to God and ask for his help. Failure is not necessarily the end--but a path to a new beginning.
