Bent Hope chapter-by-chapter prayers of reflection…

One of the thoughtful suggestions that arose from an early Bent Hope focus group discussion was that I think through a meaningful way to help people process what they might be feeling as they read through the Chapters of Bent Hope. In response, I invited 23 talented and interesting people to think through and write prayers of reflection – artistis, writers, leaders and visionaries. 23 people that I greatly admire and appreciate. While they are greatly accomplished in their fields of work, art and ministry – they have been invited to write these prayers primarily because of their authenticity and ability to communicate. As much as anything, they represent parents, grandparents, friends, siblings, co-workers, neighbours, and most of all – people doing their best day to day.

Bent Hope – A Street Journal

New book by Tim Huff, available April 2008.benthopecover.JPG

On April 10, 2008, we will celebrate the official launch of Tim’s second book, Bent Hope, published by Castle Quay Books.

Bent Hope is born out of Tim Huff’s unique and extensive 20 year ministry among homeless and street-involved youth and young adults, in Toronto, Canada. Bent Hope is a collection of thoughtful narratives birthed beneath crumbling bridges and in hidden alcoves of darkened alleyways. Each chapter reveals a unique life-story — unpredictable, intriguing and compelling. These gripping true-life stories surface quietly from unforgiving corridors of fear, hurt and uncertainty that unexpectedly and supernaturally transform into fascinating places of intimacy and godly anticipation.
