Title: Not helpful to a suicidal person
Review: I picked up this book at a time when I was struggling and found it very unhelpful. I strongly feel that Wilkerson himself has never really been in a situation where he himself contemplated suicide. If he had, he might have approached the issue with more compassion and understanding. The book is very condemming and a person already feeling suicidal would probably only be convinced that they are a terrible person for feeling suicidal. It was very heavy-handed in its religious approach, even browbeating. I am religious myself, but I found the constant, hit-you-over-the-head style of Christian thought offputting. This book doesn't really provide insights into a person's condition, and I found it unhelpful.
