What do you do when life goes off the rails and you're left with questions such as "Can I keep going through this and not be destroyed?" or "How can I keep a kind heart when it's been wounded and broken?" or even "Is there a way out of suffering and back to the way life was before?" Author Reed Lessing says yes-there is hope. The prophet Jeremiah begins with life as it is, not how he hoped it would be or should be. He provides examples of experiences that exceed the ability to cope and carry on-public humiliation, mockery, conspiracies, death threats, depression, times of doubt, imprisonments, forced exile-and becomes a God-given example of how to overcome. When you wonder where sorrow fits into your faith and belief that God is merciful, just, and kind. Jeremiah points you to Jesus. As Reed Lessing takes you through the prophet's alarming poetry, jarring narratives, and multiple near-misses with death, you can find hope again. Find hope as Jeremiah repeatedly points back to the empty tomb. See a new day dawning-one where you overcome your sorrows through Christ, just like Jeremiah. Book jacket.
