A journey of faith in the face of severe learning disability
Frances Young OBE, MA is Emeritus Professor of Theology and formerly Pro-Vice-Chancellor, University of Birmingham. Her recent publications include Brokenness and Blessing: Towards a Biblical Spirituality (DLT/Baker, 2007), From Nicaea to Chalcedon: A guide to the Literature and its background (SCM/Baker, 2010) and God's Presence: A Contemporary Recapitulation of Early Christianity (CUP, 2013).
In this long awaited book, key themes from Frances Young's earlier
work – motherhood, suffering, disability, meaning and love –
re-emerge in a richer and deeper melody. The cries of anguish and
"why?" are taken up into a new-found trust and joy. She draws us
into the beauty and strength of a love which faces all the
challenges and yet celebrates the wonder of Arthur's life and
vocation. If you are someone grappling with the hard questions
about God, life and things going wrong, this book is for you.

This book isn’t an easy read, but it has depth – a beauty about it
that is remarkable and life-affirming.
