Based on the Theology of Suffering course Finch teaches at Moody Bible Institute, this examination of the reality of evil and suffering in the world gives a framework to understand along with a pathway to cope with it. The author examines the reality of and causes of suffering, then points readers to the light of the Trinity, the Cross, God’s point of view, and finally, to how a person experiences suffering. "Suffering points to the mystery of life itself. It does something to a person, it reduces their tolerance of superficiality," writes Finch. Not a personal memoir so much as a treatise on theological truth.Based on the Theology of Suffering course Finch teaches at Moody Bible Institute, this examination of the reality of evil and suffering in the world gives a framework to understand along with a pathway to cope with it.
