Author Martin Otto says, "Faith is not a technique that one learns. It is something given to us by the Holy Spirit... We never learned faith when we compare ourselves to others or look to others. Also, faith is not something that we can learn in an instant, once and for all. Faith is something that will challenge us all our lives, and will need to pursue it day after day. We are told to live by faith and not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7). This book came into being in response to the request of a Filipino seaman whom Martin had met on a ship in Hamburg, and who had read Martin's previous book, Help, How Can I Overcome Temptations? He wrote and encouraged him with these words: "I hope there will be another book like the one I just read to deepen a seaman's faith in God and answer questions we have during times of loneliness when we need guidance..." Additional info: It includes the testimonies of a captain whose ship was pirated at open sea and another whose ship was caught at sea between two typhoons.
