IGNP-172893

This book is for all those who have suffered great sorrow in their lives and for those close to such persons, who share their deep suffering. Sorrow comes into the life of every person, but catastrophe comes only to some. These are disasters that occur suddenly or with terrible effects, like the death of a child. they are natural disasters or horrific accidents or tragedies caused by people's evil acts. They arise from wars and situations of great tension. Fr. Groeschel has written about faith and sorrow previously. Here he seeks to study catastrophes of all kinds in relationship to our faith in God's goodness and mercy and in light of the suffering and death of Jesus. Christianity is the only religion that speaks of a God who suffered a terrible catastrophe. Therefore, the Christian, must in the midst of catastrophe, fins his way to the cross where he will find answers which cannot be given by any other religious faith. Paperback, 5 x 8, 107 pages.
