What if God was in the business of healing the soul just as much as He was in the business of healing the body? What if that diagnosis you received was not because of a lack of faith? What if the call to have fellowship with Jesus also requires that we have fellowship with Him in His suffering? What if the inevitability of pain and suffering was able to bring about something beautiful in our lives?
If you are in a place where you are needing a practical theology of the idea of how to face suffering when it comes, Beautiful Suffering might be something that you should read to give you hope and strength to endure.
