Dalla quarta di copertina

"Beautiful, heartrending, hope-filled, laugh-out-loud funny"

A cancer diagnosis changes everything. Fear, uncertainty, and suffering become daily realities--not just for patients but also for families, friends, and caregivers.
 
In God Meets Us in Our Suffering, three pastors who journeyed through cancer together reflect on how God meets us in suffering with grace and power, offering comfort, courage, and a renewed trust in God's faithfulness.

"With luminous wisdom and wry humor, the authors reflect on faithfulness--divine and human--and reveal how, even in suffering, God meets us with unanticipated grace."
--Kate Bowler, Duke Divinity School; author of Everything Happens for a Reason

"A most heartfelt, honest, personal, practical, faithful, and funny book on how even human suffering can be a God-given opportunity to fall more deeply in love with God."
--Will Willimon, Duke Divinity School; United Methodist bishop, retired; author of Accidental Preacher: A Memoir

"Beautiful, heartrending, hope-filled, laugh-out-loud funny."
--Deanna A. Thompson, author of Glimpsing Resurrection: Cancer, Trauma, and Ministry

"This book will serve as a companion for anyone who has ever wondered where God is when life falls apart--and the answer, beautifully rendered here, is 'Right here with us.'''
--Tripp Fuller, founder and host of the Homebrewed Christianity podcast
