When suffering overwhelms us it is easy to despair and even doubt God’s goodness. As the clouds of suffering roll in we can lose sight of everything but our pain. In these moments when the stars disappear we must turn to Scripture to find assurance that God can and will carry us through. In this book Mark Talbot recounts the suffering of some of the Bible’s greatest saints. They show us what it means to remain faithful and hopeful through life’s darkest times?and thus help us cling to God’s sure promise that he will never leave us or forsake us but will be with us and sustain us until the storms subside and the stars reappear.
