Published by Regal in 2007 with the subtitle Encouragement and Inspiration When You Need It Most, and reissued by Chosen in 2014 as Hope When You Need It Most. Through the words of Jesus, Hayford writes about triumphing over the worst seasons of suffering and regaining hope in apparently impossible situations, by focusing on the power of the cross; real-life stories of people who overcame trials accompany the teaching. Hayford begins with a hopeless day of his own and with Hebrews 12:1–2, Jesus "who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross."
