Triumph Over Suffering is a Bible study for women to facilitate spiritual healing and growth by helping them to understand why they suffer, by inspiring them to grow closer to God and to face forward, and by guiding them to discover God's purpose for them through their suffering. This book is packed with 300 Scripture verses, and over 40 people contributed personal accounts to illustrate the teaching points. In the first part of the book, readers will handle difficult emotions such as anger, depression, guilt, and fear. They will experience the depth of God's love in a fresh new way and come to surrender to Him on a deeper level. Through part two, readers will identify their primary purpose, to glorify God, and come to understand that they may not always comprehend His sovereign plan, but they can always trust His heart. They will recognize that God is always working for their good, conforming them to Jesus' image, in order to prepare them for Kingdom work on earth and rewards and responsibilities in heaven. They will also learn why suffering is necessary to allow them to enter into a more intimate relationship with Jesus. In the final part, readers will see how they may choose a response to suffering that glorifies God, or a response that does not glorify Him. They will also learn how to hear God's voice as He reveals their calling through their suffering, and will be inspired to seize what Jesus seized them for.

What if suffering were not arbitrary? Not meaningless, nor a sign of punishment or defeat, but a fundamental element of healing, growth, and triumph? What if suffering were positive? This book is a study and meditation on the nature, origin, and reality of suffering. Contemplating the suffering of Christ and other biblical figures, J. Bryson Arthur investigates a theology of suffering that testifies to its necessity within the plan of God. Bryson reminds us that the nature of suffering is to share fellowship with Christ – to take up one’s cross and follow him. Thus, suffering is not arbitrary but intrinsic to the path God has laid before our feet: a path leading to restoration, wholeness, and fullness of life. An important resource for students of theology, this is also a powerful and hopeful read for anyone seeking meaning in the midst of suffering.

Must we stumble through sorrow and tragedy without understanding or is there a lighted way--a path--through suffering? Elisabeth Elliot plots the treacherous passage through pain, grief, and loss a journey most of us will make many times in our life. Through it all, she says, there is only one reliable path, and if you walk it, you will see the transformation of all your losses, heartbreaks, and tragedies into something strong and purposeful. In this powerful moving book, Elisabeth Elliot does not hesitate to ask hard questions, to examine tenderly the hurts we suffer, and to explore boldly the nature of God whose sovereign care for us is so intimate and perfect that he confounds our finite understanding. A Path through Suffering is a book for anyone searching for faith, comfort, and assurance.

If merely coping with the pain in your life is all you're doing, then you aren't living as you were meant to live. Granted, coping is admirable, but there is a way to metabolize suffering--to transform it into strength, turning trouble into triumph.

In the last few years, 9/11, a tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, and many other tragedies have shown us that the vision of God in today's churches in relation to evil and suffering is often frivolous. Against the overwhelming weight and seriousness of the Bible, many Christians are choosing to become more shallow, more entertainment-oriented, and therefore irrelevant in the face of massive suffering. In Suffering and the Sovereignty of God, contributors John Piper, Joni Eareckson Tada, Steve Saint, Carl Ellis, David Powlison, Dustin Shramek, and Mark Talbot explore the many categories of God's sovereignty as evidenced in his Word. They urge readers to look to Christ, even in suffering, to find the greatest confidence, deepest comfort, and sweetest fellowship they have ever known.

Why is there so much suffering? How do I make sense of my pain? Father Christopher Mahar responds to these questions and more with empathy, conviction, and hope. Guided by the writings of Saint John Paul II and over twenty years of pastoral experience, Fr. Mahar unfolds the mysterious truth that “even in suffering, we can find love.” His short chapters, reflection questions, and prompts for prayer are a rich companion for those who are suffering and those who love them. -----I wish I didn’t need this book, but I do. We all do, because so much of life is occupied with suffering—grief, disappointment, physical pain, shame. Jesus Christ showed us the way through every ordeal, empowering us not only to endure, but to triumph. In these pages, Father Mahar shows us that way, helping us to understand it as he provides clear, practical spiritual guidance. —Mike Aquilina, executive vice-president, St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology; author, The Fathers of the Church; EWTN host -----Despite the “broken families, broken promises, and broken lives” all around us, [Father Christopher Mahar] effectively illustrates the astonishing Good News of our faith—that the “Gospel of Suffering” allows every trial to be a rich encounter with Christ and an opportunity to embrace a creative vocation radiating hope.—Genevieve Kineke, author and speaker on authentic Catholic femininity
