Customer Reviews

Heart-gripping and soul-baring with a message of hope.

The author tackles some very hefty life issues with her characteristic genuine "realness," honesty, and unabashed openness. She holds nothing back as she shares her personal struggles over the years with issues most of us can relate to easily. Through it all, I feel she is the "friend next door" confiding her innermost thoughts, fears, and desires, trusting me with her most profound secrets as we sit across her kitchen table. Along the way, I'm constantly lead by her back to Christ ~ the wellspring of all hope.

Night Wrestling: Struggle for Answers and Finding God

Leslie Winfield Williams is a very insightful author who shares her experiences with the reader, as well as, the wisdom she has gained through her walk with God. I found her book to be honest, again insightful, and an inspiration. I recommend "Night Wrestling" to any one who seeks encouragement in their life.

Powerful

This is one of the most powerful, thought-provoking books I've ever read. Leslie's honesty and vulnerability in sharing her own experiences draws you in and helps you see God's unfailing presence in the midst of all of our troubled times.

Easily read, spiritually moving, thought provoking

I had the good fortune of meeting the author prior to reading her book.She shares with the reader her personal / family tragedies, trials and tribulations in such a way that draws you in and makes you wonder how she has found the strength to continue. Her ability to convey that in many ways she is like the person reading her book.. i.e cooks ,cleans, does laundry,renews ones belief that we mere mortals can find the strength to receive Gods love and grace in every moment if we can open the door just a crack. And even if we don't open the door, His grace and love is ever present within each of us. God never gives up on us, unfortunately we cannot say the same about ourselves.
