Grow through your suffering
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book describes several types of suffering; one per chapter. Each chapter discusses how a particular saint dealt with this type of suffering. The discussion is then broadened with brief reference to the lives of other saints. Of great value are the five or six "lessons learned" at the end of each chapter. These short statements give valuable guidance, simply stated, in how to deal with each type of suffering. I strongly recommend it to any one who has asked "Why me, God?"
One of the best!

Dr. Chervin has done the Church and the world a great favor in writing this book! It has made such a difference in my life and I have sent it to numerous friends in time of trouble. She reminds us that the Saints are not people who are beyond us, but people who experienced the same kind of sufferings that we do. Dr. Chervin presents case after case of suffering and shows how our heroes in the Faith dealt with their troubles without becoming bitter or losing heart. This is no tome of flowery, empty piety, but a work that comes from the heart of one who has suffered and sought an answer. Thank you Dr. Chervin!!!
a much needed book

Few books can reach readers on a deep level. This book does a great job of it. The author shows how saints suffered from crosses of different kinds. She also offers advice on how to handle sufferings of all kinds. This is a very inspirational and moving book. I have researched extensively and have never come across as good as this one. It should become one of the great spiritual classics.
