"John has been one of those used of God to bring me into these lifegiving truths of grace and our identity in Jesus. He is my friend. You will feel he is yours as you read these real-life stories of redemption." Bart Millard of MercyMeNot a moment of your life has been left to chance. Not a moment have you been uncared for. Many of us stumbled into Jesus and discovered the one we'd been searching for our entire lives-whether we knew it or not. Now that we've found Him though, it's hard not to wonder where He was before... Where was He on our worst days? Were we as overwhelmingly alone as we felt? What if every single moment of every single day-He had been magnificently redeeming your worst days into your best ones? What if redemption wasn't a tenet of cold theology, but instead, a relationship of love that was formed most deeply, not when you were on your game, but when you couldn't seem to make sense of almost anything? The hope-infused pages of On My Worst Day reveal the redemption you've longed for. Discover firsthand how the narrative of your life changes as you dare to believe that your worst days do not define you. With each impactful story, you will be awakened to the undeniable power of the cross that sets you free. Whether for the first time or the first time in a long time, you will encounter the voice of God, who has adored you from the beginning and you will hear His words to you: You are enough, My child. Surpassingly enough.Praise for On My Worst Day: "Everyone I know wants to hang out with John Lynch. He's just that type of guy. You're drawn to him, almost without explanation. Maybe it's because he's so uniquely gifted, but more likely it's because he makes you feel important. John Lynch is raw. John Lynch is real. And most importantly, John Lynch knows Jesus. This book is your chance to hang out with John, share some incredibly honest moments with him, and discover the rejuvenating power of God's grace." Dr. Andrew Farley, host of Andrew Farley LIVE on Sirius XM, bestselling author of The Naked Gospel and Twisted Scripture"John Lynch is a trusted storyteller who brilliantly engages the human journey, both his and ours, with kind humor, authentic insight, and deep compassion." Paul Young, author of The Shack, Cross Roads, Eve, and Lies We Believe About God"I urge you to listen to your heart and accept John's invitation in his book to experience, as he is, God's amazing grace." Bill Thrall, co-founder of Trueface, co-author of The Cure"I have never met anyone like John Lynch. He reminds me of a human lantern shining a light of God's outrageous love so bright my eyes squint. If you are so lucky as to read the magnificent On My Worst Day, you will encounter an unguarded peek into a life compellingly marked by unfathomable grace, and the vast love of a very intimate God. Let these powerful words shine as they persuade all of us who long for redemption in our own stories: 'Not a minute left to chance, not a moment uncared for.' Cheers to this important and hopeful book!" Tracy Levinson, bestselling author of Unashamed - Candid Conversations about Dating, Love, Nakedness, & Faith

I wrote this book to explain who I am and where I came from so you could see inside my life and better understand my background. I am no different than anyone else because we all have our own story to tell. Sometimes only seeing the end of someone's life story makes their results seem unattainable. By showing the progression of my story from beginning to end, you can clearly see how I learned and grew. This is the type of book I wish I had to help me because it could have helped me avoid some costly mistakes along this journey called my life.
Set in his native Northern Ireland, John Lynch's debut novel is a lyrically told and exquisitely tender story of innocence and loss.'He remembers when he was very young standing by water...How he had got there or where the pond was he couldn't remember, but he can vaguely recall a larger hand on his and being led through the high rooms of a large building, to a large garden, where bees wove dozy patterns in the air. At the bottom of this garden lay the large pond, and he remembers a face bending to meet his and whispering that he would be back in a little while. So he stood where he had been left, his small feet pointing at the stonework of the pond's rim. He remembers a wind brewing in the tops of the trees and tearing at the water of the pond for a moment, before subsiding, his face blurring into focus like a TV channel being tuned.'When James Lavery's father is blown to bits by a bomb he intended to maim and kill others with, the boy keeps him alive in his imagination as a superhero, escaping the daily grind of school, his mother's drinking and his own acute loneliness by inventing extraordinary adventures for them both. But, gradually, through the agonies of adolescence James begins to understand the real cost of his father's weak and deluded heroism.It is only when he falls in love himself, during a summer away from his tortured home life, that James finally begins to understand the true complexities of love, life and death...

Revision of: Pain behind the mask. c1999.
This extraordinary book encompasses the time period from the first Christian evangelists' arrival in Latin America to the dictators of the late twentieth century. With unsurpassed knowledge of Latin American history, John Lynch sets out to explore the reception of Christianity by native peoples and how it influenced their social and religious lives as the centuries passed. As attentive to modern times as to the colonial period, Lynch also explores the extent to which Indian religion and ancestral ways survived within the new Christian culture.The book follows the development of religious culture over time by focusing on peak periods of change: the response of religion to the Enlightenment, the emergence of the Church from the wars of independence, the Romanization of Latin American religion as the papacy overtook the Spanish crown in effective control of the Church, the growing challenge of liberalism and the secular state, and in the twentieth century, military dictators' assaults on human rights. Throughout the narrative, Lynch develops a number of special themes and topics. Among these are the Spanish struggle for justice for Indians, the Church's position on slavery, the concept of popular religion as distinct from official religion, and the development of liberation theology.
Spanish America was engulfed for nearly two decades in revolutions for independence that were sudden, violent, and universal.
Hauntingly told and emotionally charged, this is an immense story of consuming addiction and the betrayal of trust.'I knew that the black dot of pain that lay in the centre of his eyes also lay in mine, and that it was a stain that no amount of washing or praying could shift. I think of my loneliness, how it coils around the centre of my being like a long thread of steel and realise that my father must have been the same, he stood on the outside of our family condemned as an ogre, just as I do now.'Gabriel O'Rourke seemingly has everything: a loving wife, an adoring young son, a worthwhile job. He is rooted in a community, is part of a family, has a home. Yet, gradually, his world slowly pulls apart, until Gabriel finds himself homeless and destitute, living out of rubbish skips on the street. In a psychotic haze he is admitted into a secure unit, his body addled by alcohol, his mind broken. Here, by confronting the blighting reality of his own alcoholism, Gabriel is forced finally to unearth the muddled spectre of the past: the black betrayals by those around him, his traumatic relationship with his father, and the true darkness of some obsessions.Learning to navigate a landscape pockmarked with trauma to undergo a journey of painstaking absolution and halting reconstruction, Gabriel understands that only by untangling the mistakes of the past can he hope to reclaim his future.
