Description

Morris peels back the layers of questions that arise when someone asks the question “why me?” Morris not only writes about how to understand and live with suffering, he also poses the toughest question to God: why do we suffer under a benevolent God? Next he delves into how to be healed from the spiritual, emotional, and even physical scars left behind by suffering. He offers six principles for living a free life, or a life free of the fear that God is not there for us. He concludes with a captivating dialogue between a priest and a parent whose daughter is abused and then murdered, making real the deep issues that we all wrestle with.
