Lorne E. Weaver is a retired priest and rector in the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles. He is a graduate of Gordon College, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, Fuller Theological Seminary, and did post-graduate work at The Claremont School of Theology in Claremont, California. He lives in Upland, California. This is his first book.
"Weaver finds in the Psalms amazing affirmations of trust in God in
the midst of personal disasters that today drive many people away
from the Church. While Weaver bases his readings on scholarship of
the Book of Psalms he nonetheless pierces through the many
conjectures about their forms, origins and provenances and finds
what the lay person today faces who often lives on the boundaries
of modern existence, the soul who quietly endures the worst that
life can throw at a person. This book speaks to those who often
quietly suffer pain and doubt to the point of despair. This is the
book that speaks to those who ask the desperate question, "Why did
God let this happen?"
--from the foreword by James A. Sanders
