The Wonder Worker (2011)
“insist that the “weak” believe for a cure; when “deliverance” is seen as the only resort if the helper is stuck; when carers, driven by their own needs, always need to solve everything. There is potentially a frightening level of abuse.
GARETH TUCKWELL AND DAVID FLAGG A Question of Healing I I wrecked my marriage on Wednesday the twenty-third of November, 1988. Afterwards I slept for six hours. Wrecking things is an exhausting occupation. Nothing life-enhancing about it at all.

That went without saying, since the alternative was inconceivable, but meanwhile it was shredded. For a time I pretended I was hooked up with God and engaged creatively in prayer. Then at six, when no further pretence of this kind was possible, I abandoned my study and knocked on Lewis’s door.
