Holding On to Hope: A Pathway through Suffering to the Heart of God

A healing book for those in the wake of life’s devastating storms.

We can never plan for the unexpected turns of this life that sometimes lead to great personal suffering. Sometimes that suffering can overshadow everything and threaten to pull us under. Nancy Guthrie knows what it is to be plunged into life’s abyss. Framing her own story of staggering loss and soaring hope with the biblical story of Job, she takes you by the hand and guides you on a pathway through pain―straight to the heart of God.

Filled with gentle wisdom and hard-won faith, Holding On to Hope offers:

• An uplifting perspective, not only for those experiencing monumental loss, but for anyone going through difficulty and failure
• Honest and deeply vulnerable encouragement to help you find purpose during life’s hardest moments
• An 8-week Bible study on Job for readers who want to dig deeper into Scripture’s words on suffering and grief

Let Nancy’s words give you comfort amidst lament and help you discover a faith that will remain when all hope is lost.
