Discover grace as you've never known it before: the most powerful force in the universe and our only hope for love and forgiveness. Grace is the church's great distinctive. It's the one thing the world cannot duplicate, and the one thing it craves above all else--for only grace can bring hope and transformation to a jaded world. In What's So Amazing About Grace? award-winning author Philip Yancey explores grace at street level. If grace is God's love for the undeserving, he asks, then what does it look like in action? And if Christians are its sole dispensers, then how are we doing at lavishing grace on a world that knows far more of cruelty and unforgiveness than it does of mercy?

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.
