Product Description

The Question that Never Goes Away Philip Yancey In his classic book Where Is God When It Hurts, Philip Yancey gave us permission to doubt, reasons not to abandon faith, and practical ways to reach out to hurting people. And now, thirty years after writing his first book, Yancey revisits our cry of “Why, God” in three places stunned into silence by the calamities that have devastated them.  At some point all of us will face the challenges to faith Yancey writes about and look for the comfort and hope he describes. There are reasons to ask, once again, the question that never goes away: Where is God when we suffer? And Yancey, once again, leads us to find faith when it is most severely put to the test. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 📌Real and practical help for those in desperate need. Some days, the news seems too much to bear. Yet another tsunami or earthquake or flood or fire or war. We turn off the news only to get a phone call about expectant parents with a stillborn baby or a loved one whose cancer has returned. Where, God? We ask. Where are you? Philip Yancey explores The Question from people in places all over the world. In Newton, Connecticut, at the scene of the elementary school murders, an ambulance driver said, "All of us on the fire ans ambulance corps are volunteers. I've seen some awful things, bur we don't train for something like this -- nobody does." The Question raises its head again in Japan, where a giant tsunami buckled roads, cracked bridges, and collapsed buildings. Nineteen thousand people died. In one more part of the world, Yancey looks at The Question in the former Yugoslavia, in the city of Sarajevo, where a bloody civil war erupted and snipers shot and killed 11,000 countrymen, some women and children. For all who wonder where God is during extreme suffering, or where God was before that random shooting took place or devastating natural accident happened, here you will find the comfort to hope again. As Yancey recounts his own personal experiences as a traveler through the land of suffering, you will be equipped to respond to your own suffering in a way you may never have thought possible, and move closer to God instead of away.
