If you are finding yourself at a point in your life where it seems that you are being crushed on all sides, that no one seems to understand you, or that no one can offer you any encouragement, then your journey has brought you to the right place. In The Journey Through the Crushing, you will find that someone else had experienced these same hardships so now He can sympathize with you. The Journey Through the Crushing brings forth a detailed revelational description into what Jesus was going through as He found Himself in the garden of Gethsemane the night before His crucifixion. However, what makes this story even more meaningful is that The Journey Through the Crushing meets you right where you are in life right now. As you go through The Journey Through the Crushing, you will receive an awareness that will help you gain insight and understanding into what you are experiencing in life. As we dissect and expound upon each scripture, it will bring deep revelational knowledge that will allow you to see this story in a way that you have never seen it before. You will learn what lead you personally into the garden, why certain things take place while you are there in the garden, and most importantly, the reason for the garden. My prayer for you is that you would find encouragement in these scriptures no matter where you may find yourself in The Journey Through the Crushing.

Born in 1788 W.H. Sleeman came to India as in infantry cadet in the Bengal army in 1809. He rose through the rank final to become Major General in 1854. He is best remembered for his work for the suppression of the Thugs. He also received the coveted post of British resident at Lucknow and was the one who cautioned the British against annexing Oudh (Avadh) as, he believed, that such an action would lead to a mutiny among the native sepoys. This was in 1854-55. This book recounts this journey through Oudh to access the situation prevalent there. Traveling through the area he faithfully recounts all that he saw; the people, their practices, the land tenure, the cultivation, the state of the army, the political situation, the nobility etc. His travel started in December 1849 and ended in Feb 1850.
