Description

Are you hurting or suffering in silence? God has a purpose in your pain.

Many people in general, and even Christians admittedly avoid the subject of pain almost as much as they avoid pain itself. But once you understand the purpose of pain, you can make the most of the painful experiences in life.

In The Furnace of Affliction: How God Uses Our Pain and Suffering for His Purpose, Horace Williams Jr. tackles this challenging topic. Based on the Word of God, insights from other leaders, and his studies, he addresses several key points, including:  

• How pain develops our faith 

• How pain determines our path

• How pain delivers comfort, joy, and peace

• And how pain deepens our commitment to God.

Packed with personal stories and scripture to support his points, Horace shares his insights on the problem of pain. His candid and straightforward communication style engages the reader as he addresses this critical topic for the body of Christ today.

Affliction. Something the Bible tells us will come to us in life, but do we really understand. Through stories of his own personal afflictions, from having a stroke at a young age, to a wedding engagement that ended up not coming to pass, Mr. Williams shows us how we are to depend on God, not only on a daily basis, but also during troubling times. The book includes Practical advice as well as Biblical truths. A great read that I will refer to often.

I received a copy of this book Via Netgalley and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
