How Does God Use Suffering for Our Good?

Biblical Hope During Life’s Greatest Trials

One thing is certain in this life: We will all experience hardship and pain. But with God as our caring Father, we can also be certain the trials we face are not simply mysteries beyond understanding, but opportunities to be shaped for a glory beyond imagination.

When we learn why God allows suffering, our pain is given meaning. How Does God Use Suffering for Our Good? is a powerful and encouraging look at how God can use life’s difficulties for His grand plans for us. You will discover how Scripture offers far more than a “trust and wait” response to enduring life’s trials―and how you can live with purpose and hope even as you suffer today.

Drawing on their own times of anguish and hardship, Clay and Jean guide you through seven specific, practical, and life-tested truths that can help you experience victory amid afflictions. These timeless truths from Scripture will help calm your heart, equip you to persevere, and help you focus on the glorious inheritance that awaits you in heaven.
