When Persecution Causes Pain: A Message from Jesus and Paul

"This thoughtful book speaks to a major concern for the church and for any in the secular world who think of themselves as just and humane. Given its author, it naturally examines persecution from a clearly Christian perspective. However, it also allows a considerable range of others to speak on aspects of interest to them. (This field is huge, and there remain many other voice to be heard). Avoiding biblical-theological jargon, Dr. Mok writes in a way apprehensible to a wide swath of the concerned and thoughtful public." --GEOFF WILKINS, retired school principal, school district superintendent, and an elder of the church
"Lawrence Mok provides a sound and clear biblical understanding of the purposes for suffering in the midst of persecution. His work will be a strong, comforting support to those currently suffering and to all who want to prepare for coming persecution, wherever and whenever it may come." --WILLIAM BADKE, Librarian, Trinity Western University, for Associated Canadian Theological Schools and Information Literacy
"Christians around the world are facing more persecution and pain than ever before. Dr Mok's book let us hear what Jesus and Paul say about this. It is a timely reminder." --DON FARIS, PhD, pastor, writer, politician and missionary
