Synopsis

Written by a pastor and father who has walked a painful road, Hope When Life Unravels explores the encouraging, upside-down truths of the book of Job, and other key Bible passages, to remind us of the ways God is present in our pain.Why does God allow suffering? And why does God seem to go silent when we're in pain? In Hope When Life Unravels, Dr. Adam Dooley, pastor and host of the daily radio broadcast A Better Way, searches for answers to our biggest questions about suffering as he shares his son Carson's story of battling leukemia.Adam speaks openly about the gut-wrenching struggle his family endured for three years of life-threatening illness and how God met them in their hours of need--even when it wasn't in the ways they wanted. And, along with his own story, Adam takes listeners through the story of Job, unpacking insights about God's character, his love, and how we can stay connected to him even during seasons of pain.Both inspiring and comforting, Hope When Life Unravels invites us to draw closer to a God who is often active in our lives in times when we have trouble seeing him the most.Discussion questions are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

There wasn’t a time that I picked this book and I didn’t feel myself falling apart. I’ve cried many many tears to this book.

Goodreads review by Jane on November 11, 2020

Much Needed Encouragement There is much needed encouragement and practical help within these pages. While it talks a lot about their family’s journey through childhood cancer, that’s not really what this book is about. The book is truly about dealing with ANY type of adversity. What I really liked w......more

Goodreads review by Margaret I Miller on January 28, 2021

A book worth reading. This is from a church pastor but told by a father who goes through all the doubts, fears and tears every parent has when our children are in crisis. How he and his wife deal with all that was involved and the cruelty of some who understood none of it is so inspiring. I recommen......more
