Suffering has a way of stopping us in our tracks. It exposes what we rely on, shakes what feels secure, and leaves us asking questions that quick answers can’t satisfy.

Drawing from Scripture, lived experience, and the rich tradition of Christian thought, this book walks you through the reality of suffering with both honesty and hope.

Sometimes we describe ourselves as trees. When we're thriving, we speak of being rooted and fruitful, in a good season. When we struggle, we might describe ourselves as withering, cut off from friendship and the world. These ways of describing ourselves matter because they shape the ways we live.
