The author, Arthur A. Rouner, is a graduate of Harvard College, Union Theological Seminary, and Luther Theological Seminary. He served as a Congregational minister for forty-plus years. He has written twenty-five books, including How to Love, Healing Your Hurts, Being Present, and Forgiveness: The Road to Reconciliation. Following parish ministry, he founded The Pilgrim Center for Reconciliation, an international ministry dedicated to helping church and government leaders recover from the traumas of genocide, war, and conflict. It is his hope that this book may be an encouragement to others who are looking for a word to say that will tell the Lord what they are feeling in critical moments of their lives.
