This is the autobiography of Chad Varah, an Anglican pastor and the founder of the Samaratins. Varah has led an interesting life, most notable for the founding of the suicide prevention call line the Samaratins, but also for his outspoken stance on human sexuality and his regular column in Forum magazine. As with a lot of autobiographies, this one is tedious in places. Nevertheless, it is a good and interesting read as one discovers Varah is not the typical pastor. Varah's is a rich and varied life and reading this book one does get the feeling that one knows him. His religious views are not entirely orthodox; indeed, they often seem like a breath of fresh air. I recommend this book to anyone who likes biography or who wants to read about someone whose life was spent in reaching out to others in pain.
