A revolutionary approach to dealing with life's challenges
that guides readers in how to face them and to recognize them as
gifts from God.
At one time or another everyone finds themselves questioning,
"Does God still love me? Is there a purpose for all this pain?" Drs.
Meier and Henderson teach readers how to face painful struggles
head-on in a way that allows them to grow and mature emotionally and
spiritually. In this timely book they explore the seven most common
life challenges:
- Injustice
- Rejection
- Loneliness
- Loss
- Discipline
- Failure
- Death
In addition they offer the three reasons we often miss the gifts
these challenges can be. This unique approach to an age-old problem
will encourage and challenge readers to grow through their struggles
instead of wasting energy trying to avoid them altogether.

Pain is not the enemy, but a catalyst for growth. That is the
premise of FINDING PURPOSE BEYOND OUR PAIN. The authors help the
reader get past the physical and emotional pain in their lives by
focusing on what we can learn from the painful experience and how it
can help them grow and change.
I found this premise interesting. I've not been through a lot of
physical pain, but much emotional pain, and I can attest that being
open to change and learning through the experiences did help me to
grow both emotionally and spiritually. My husband has found the same
in his daily physical pain due to a serious neck injury. God
works in mysterious ways and he uses the trials in our lives to make
us better people.
The book was thought provoking and easy to read. I highly recommend
it.
