It's easy to trust God when things go our way and the world still makes sense. But when suffering strikes, we are filled with doubts and stunned by all kinds of events beyond our control. In the midst of suffering, we often question the very foundation of our faith in God. Since our trust and obedience is based on God's character, the questions that life's tragedies force us to face are difficult, even frightening.
Joni Eareckson Tada, a woman who has lived in a wheelchair for over fifty years, and Steven Estes, a pastor and one of Joni's closest friends, explore the answers to questions about suffering. When God Cries is not so much a book about suffering as it is about God. Through an overview of what the Bible says about suffering, the authors clearly explain who God is, why He allows so much sorrow and pain, and how we can trust Him.
When God Cries is for people who need more than answers. With practicality and sincere warmth, he teaches us to depend on God's love and mercy despite our doubts, fears, desires, and questions.
