Official synopsis Publisher
Listening to someone in need is in some ways listening to Jesus himself.
This book is for those who, having started on the lifelong adventure of listening to God, find themselves listening to others also. Such listening can take many forms: hearing their pain or turmoil – or sharing their joy – or providing physically for someone sick or hungry.
Drawing on her own many years’ pastoral and counselling experience, Joyce Huggett describes how to listen and respond effectively and shows vital ways in which you can learn to encourage and build relationships with others.
