Between Pain And Grace, A Biblical Theology of Suffering by Andrew Schmutzer & Gerald Peterman and published by Moody Publishers.
Why does suffering exist? When will it end? Where is God in it? Despite how common suffering is, we still struggle to understand it, and even more, to bear through it. Between Pain and Grace gets to the heart of this struggle. Born from a popular college course on suffering, this book answers many of our critical questions, like:
* Is God personally involved in our pain and suffering?
* How should Christians handle emotions like grief and anger?
* What does the Bible say about issues like mental illness, sexual abuse, and betrayal?
Striking an elegant balance between being scholarly on the one hand and heartfelt on the other, Between Pain and Grace is useful both in the classroom and for personal reading. The authors pull together Scripture, personal experiences, and even psychological research to offer a well-rounded and trustworthy take on suffering. Between Pain and Grace will give you confidence in God’s sovereignty, comfort in His presence, and wisdom for life this side of paradise.
