Created for Joy A Christian View of Suffering

In the face of suffering, is it possible to believe in God? In this heartfelt and thoughtful new book, revered Catholic columnist Sidney Callahan answers yes, offering a reflection on suffering from a Christian perspective. Taking on C.S. Lewis and other traditional writers, she introduces the reader to new insights from fields such as the psychology of human emotion and evolutionary biology. Drawing from her own harrowing experience of a mother's loss, she shows that Christians view suffering in a different way, with the expectation - in the face of all evidence to the contrary - that we are created to experience joy.Callahan, Sidney is the author of 'Created for Joy A Christian View of Suffering', published 2007 under ISBN 9780824525668 and ISBN 0824525663.
