Description

Forced to walk through a painful reality of unanswered questions, he experienced firsthand the processes of grief, guilt and depression. Gradually gaining new perspectives on suffering as he journeyed toward healing, Dunn shares insights found along the way. From asking God "Why?" to the forward-moving "What now?" he began to move from darkness into light. Dunn encourages us to believe that our pain and sorrow are carried in the nail-scarred hands of a sovereign God who purposes to bless us, show more even when heaven is silent. Book jacket. show less

Ronald Dunn's personal experiences of tragedy and depression are woven into his detailed studies of Jacob's wrestling with the angel, Job's catalogue of sufferings and King David's disappointments. He assures readers that such periods of difficulty are inevitable in our lives, but even though we flee God in these times he will not abandon us.
