Life is disappointing. And disappointment can so easily come to dominate our life—the nagging thought in the back of our minds and the constant 'but' colouring all our pleasures.
In this realistic, hope-filled book, John Hindley shows how to deal with disappointment — what disappointment is, what it does, and how to learn to live with the disappointments while also knowing joy.
If your life isn't perfect… you need this book!

I have read this book twice and will read it again. There is so much gentle and encouraging wisdom in it's pages. The style is easy going, the chapters are brief and the points are well made and argued. I bought a few copies for friends and fellow church members. You won't be disappointed if you buy a copy and read it, rather you will be blessed.

I found this book really encouraging and helpful. I'm biased, because I'm part of the author's church family, but I wouldn't leave a review if I didn't think it was really good!

We all get disappointed and this book puts several interesting ideas forward to help us come to terms with our experience. I appreciated the ideas of under disappointed and over disappointed and have started to use those terms when looking at my life. Also in the end all things come under the perspective of eternity. It is good to know it is OK to be disappointed and in some situations it is a sign of our longing for the coming of the King.
