Pete Wilcox reflects on the time when, in the space of one year, he was made a diocesan bishop – in the wake of the withdrawal of the preferred candidate – and was diagnosed with and received radical surgery for cancer of the colon that left him with a permanent colostomy.
Drawing heavily on daily prayer journal entries kept at the time, he offers encouragement and support for anyone attempting to maintain life as normal while dealing with personal challenges that might be overwhelming. This is a story of both trust and resilience which will inspire and encourage anyone whose hopes and dreams have been overtaken by events, and enable them to find God’s faithfulness in the midst of turmoil.
Pete Wilcox is the Bishop of Sheffield.
