Gain from Pain

In this sympathetic book born out of many years’ experience as a consultant paediatrician in the UK and Uganda, Janet Goodall guides us gently on a biblical journey through the landscape of pain, suffering, hope and gain.

At the heart of her exploration is the pain—and gain—of the Cross. Through Jesus' death and resurrection we are offered both the hope of and means to life in all its fulness—beyond, and even in the midst of, our pain. Like precious pearls in God’s gracious hands, great gains can slowly emerge from our present suffering, and with them new insights which can, in time, over¿ow to enrich other lives.

This insightful book, with its resolute focus on the cross of Jesus, will bring in equal measure comfort, challenge, hope and inspiration to those who suffer and to those who minister to the suffering alike.
