It's Here!

Hope Lies Ahead

Hope Lies Ahead is James’s latest project, co-authored with his son Geoff. This compelling new book tells some of the story behind James’s bestselling Prayers for Prodigals. James and Geoff write each chapter from their own perspective, candidly sharing Geoff’s struggle with drug addiction and God’s gradual transformation of his life. It also tells about God’s work in James’s heart, drawing him deeper into prayer and an understanding of grace. One reviewer described Hope Lies Ahead this way: “Powerful, heartbreaking, shocking, inspirational, are just a few words that come to mind….” It’s a must-read for any parent. You won’t be able to put it down!
