Unabridged Audiobook
This heart - wrenching, authentic, real, in the middle of life account of one woman's experience of a theology of suffering is truly soul healing. It is an overdue necessity for the American church and a balm to those in the disability community who struggle to find a place in that church. So many times in these chapters i heard my own story being told. i wept and laughed and pondered as i listened to truths i had known in my heart but couldn't find the words. This book cries out for a sequel as it is the author's own present tense testimony. My advice to anyone who picks up this treasure is to read (or listen) until the very end. the last two chapters are as captivating as the first. This book should be required reading for any seminary but has real application for anyone who has ever asked the question "why does a good God allow suffering?" the narrator gets only 3 stars because her voice seems somewhat condescending which gives a dissonance with the author's words. and the writing is so personal it seems strange to hear it from someone other than the author.
