Few topics provoke more questions in the human heart than that of suffering. Paul Wolfe addresses this painful subject with both pastoral and personal experience. Here a struggling soul can find assurance that Christ is still near, still compassionate, and still safely shepherding the Christian through every dark valley. A clear and concise Q&A section addresses both practical and theological issues.

Brett Rudder –
Immensely practical, well-written, and ever pastoral – Paul Wolfe’s little book on suffering is one that I will have on hand to give out at all times. Having read and been blessed by another of Paul’s Banner titles, My God is True!, I am aware of the Lord’s providence in Paul’s life which has made him so well-suited to write this brief intro to God’s purpose in our suffering. A great little mini-guide.
