Where is God When It Hurts? explores the many baffling and difficult issues surrounding the mystery of pain, whether physical, emotional, or spiritual. With sensitivity and caring, this unique book helps us understand why we sufer and how to cope with our own pain as well as how to help others cope with theirs.

Using examples from the Bible as well as the author's personal experiences, this special edition speaks to everyone for whom life sometimes doesn't make sense. Philip Yancey can help us discover how to reach out to someone in pain even when we don't know what to say. It shows us how we can learn to accept without blame, anger, or fear that which we cannot understand.

"Philip puts our questions into perspective, helping us find out exactly where God really is when we hurt." - Joni Eareckson Tada
