The Saving Power of Suffering: A Practical Catholic Guide (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781960410092)

Why is there so much suffering in the world? How should we deal with suffering in our own lives? The Saving Power of Suffering teaches the answers to these questions and more, showing Catholics how to transform trials into triumph. Suffering is not our enemy but a mechanism by which God is able to help us find, accept, and even use our trials for personal and spiritual growth. In this book, Father Jacob Powell discusses how to see suffering through God's eyes, how to utilize the tools God gives us to remain fervent in the faith and steadfast in the storm, and how to encounter suffering in imitation of Christ. Nothing can overcome the faithful who bind themselves to the grace of God, develop virtuous lives, lean on the saints for help, and entrust themselves into the hands of the Blessed Virgin Mother. With these aids, suffering is harnessed into a weapon against which the devil and all the forces of evil are powerless. All glory be to God!
