When life becomes difficult-when we face deep disappointment, agonizing loss, or on-going pain-we set out on a search to find answers to significant questions: Why would God allow this to happen? What good could come out of this? What will it look like to trust him? In this collection of insightful essays and excerpts, classic and contemporary theologians and Bible teachers-ranging from John Calvin, Charles Spurgeon, and Dietrich Bonhoeffer to Tim Keller, John Piper, and D. A. Carson-explore Scripture in regard to the causes and purposes of suffering, as well as what it means to trust God in the midst of hardship and pain.
