• his longing for relief from the pain that marked his past and present–and that seemed destined to engulf his future
• his life of struggle with a broken family among a dispirited people who had forgotten their God
• his struggle to find faith, then his courage in clinging to it
• his journey toward God’s surprising answers to his bold prayer for blessing and expanded borders.
