James Dekker: “In Wild Hope John offers a sequel to In the Company of All: Prayers from Sunday Mornings at St. Cuthbert’s. What struck me in that first collection was how concisely, yet vividly, John originally captured the immediate needs, desires, praises and hopes of anyone longing for solid metaphysical grounding. In both volumes I found significant spiritual broadening and deepening. Once names of specific persons were removed for the sake of members' privacy and public digestion, the prayers recorded themes at once particular, yet also universal.”
