If God is loving, why is there suffering? What is the difference between permitting something and ordaining it? When bad things happen, who is behind them, God or the devil? When suffering touches our lives, questions like these suddenly demand answers. From our perspective, suffering doesn't make sense, especially when we believe in a loving and just God. After more than thirty years in a wheelchair, Joni Erickson Tada's intimate experience with suffering gives her a special understanding of God's intensions for us in our pain. In "When God Weeps", she and lifelong friend Steve Estes probe beyond glib answers that fail us in our time of deepest need. Instead, with firmness and compassion they reveal a God big enough to understand our suffering, wise enough to allow it and powerful enough to use it for a greater good than we can ever imagine.
