Our current read, chosen by Rosely Powell is "Get out of that pit" by Beth Moore.
In this book, Beth Moore talks about what she learned in being delivered by God from the pit of muck and darkness and about the healing to be found in Jesus.
This is a great book and there are lessons for us to learn from it. Rest assured, it is nothing like "Blood and Fire". So if you haven't yet got your copy, please do so and get reading. The book is not available at kerith bookshop. You can purchase this online from Amazon.

Synopsis
For everyone who has ever been in a pit-or is in one now, Beth Moore urges readers of this book not to believe for one second that God has forgotten them. It was a truth she could pass to them from her years of pit-dwelling.
Beth Moore wants readers to know if God could lift her out of the pit, He can get ANYONE out! She admits she wasn't just a visitor; this former pit-dweller had to be delivered from acres of life-accumulated dirt, bone-chilling darkness, spirit-deadening anger, heart-breaking desperation and mind-numbing confusion. The permanent lessons she learned in her desperation-shared in this very personal book-are lessons of hope for all of us. While she deeply empathizes with the hows and whys of life in the "pit," she continually points readers to the deliverance that awaits. Deliverance is for everyone, she proclaims-no matter how you got stuck, no matter how long you've been down, whether you think you deserve it or not. And in her straight-talking but loving style, she reminds readers that deliverance can begin for them this very day.

I found this book very helpful and raised my awareness to the dangers of 'pit dwelling'.
The Scripture Prayers and Discovery Guide also encouraged reflection of my own situations through life.
I found it helpful to read it in chapters using the guide and spending time re-reading the scripture references.
The style of writing was a little tiresome but once you put that behind it was a very easy read.
We're all likely to find ourselves in a pit at some time in our lives, whether we've been thrown in, slipped in or we've jumped in, but understanding that through the Grace of God and only by putting our complete trust in Him and not in ourselves or others can we be delivered out of the mud and mire of the pit, and put upon the rock, a firm place to stand.
Thank you Rosely for suggesting this read - it's not a book I would have chosen for myslf.
