About the Book
The purpose of this book is to discover some of the great truths God has given us in His Word as to why we as redeemed fallen human beings suffer and what He has done about it and what He has prepared for us in eternity future and how to meet those sufferings and tribulations here and now.
James McGoldrick is Professor of Church History at Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary and was previously Professor of History at Cedarville University, Ohio. He has written extensively on church history in both secular and theological journals.
"Bill and Minnie Burnside have learned to praise God when he gives them the "bread of adversity and the water of affliction" (Isaiah 30:20), and their firm faith in the Father's sovereignty is the foundation for their exuberant confidence. This book reminds believers that biblical hope means "confident expectation of what is surely to happen" (page 8). All who must endure trials providentially designed for God's glory and their eternal benefit would profit greatly through reading this warmly devotional treatment of suffering."
