Synopsis

Helen Sloane is in for one interesting year.Written as a series of journal entries, Heaven Help Helen Sloane is refreshingly honest, poignant, and often hilarious, documenting—in Helen’s own words—the daily struggles a young Christian woman must face. Helen’s new job as a social worker keeps her busy all day in a whirlwind of case notes and court papers, and at home she’s a house group leader for Frenton-on-Sea’s New Wave Christian Fellowship. She loves her church but she struggles with faith and doubt, exposed to the religious extremes of both hyper-spiritual friends and her New Age mom. And with her busy schedule, Helen also struggles to make time for love. Still, she finds two men in her life: a handsome worship leader who might not be as godly as he seems, and a former Christian turned Bohemian bad boy.Can she keep her faith strong in the midst of a chaotic life? Jeff Lucas answers this question through the joy, tragedy, love, and heartbreak revealed in the pages of Helen Sloane’s journal.

Goodreads review by Melissa (Semi-hiatus for Work) on May 16, 2019

It's often annoying to read a book set in a diary format, as it never comes across as realistic to have twenty-page entries with full dialogue. However, if readers can overlook this (and an Americanized British setting as well) , they are in for a real treat. The spiritual insights contained in this......more

Goodreads review by Victoria on July 04, 2012

It's a bit disconcerting to write the first review on a book. The short review is: I laughed, I cried. Really what more could you want? The longer review: I loved Helen Sloane. I loved how real she was. I have prayed Helen Sloane's prayers. I have struggled as she does. I too have felt like I am a h......more
