Why does someone else always have the good ideas? Nancy Guthrie, who has herself experienced severe loss, has here brought together 25 shortish extracts from well-known Christians, past and present, on pain and suffering and what the Christian responses ought to be. An excellent idea. Short, pertinent pieces, a book to pick up and put down.
The writers are living and dead, mostly pastors and preachers. From Augustine to Tim Keller, Calvin to Don Carson. They are varied, lively and thought provoking.
