Responding to Suffering - Cozzi, Luciano

. .

Résumé :
Suffering comes in many forms and is an inevitable part of life. But how do we face it? It raises many deep questions about life and what we might find within ourselves. It leaves us confused, looking for something to hold on to. In the midst of suffering, we need comfort and reassurance. When the questions overwhelm us, where can we find answers? We need a point of reference, an anchor that holds us safely to shore. This book explores the complexities of our questions about suffering with the understanding and compassion of personal experience. It provides concrete and practical answers in a meaningful way that we can all relate to. If you want to help others respond to suffering in a way that glorifies God, this book is for you. Dr. Cozzi's case study on the apostle Paul struck a powerful chord with me when he writes about the three triads of Paul's suffering. In Christ, Paul had found ample reason to rejoice in spite of his suffering. I am recommending this book because it is saturated with a rock-solid biblical theology on suffering. Responding to Suffering by Dr. Luciano Cozzi will be on my list of endorsed readings for my students. -Jeff Christianson President, International Association of Biblical Counselors Founder, The BiblicalCounselingAcademy.com For anyone seeking a thoroughly biblically and truly hopeful word from a fellow traveler who knows adversity and sufferings, I could not recommend more highly Luciano Cozzi's book, Responding to Suffering. Well informed, avoiding sentimentality and easy answers, Dr. Cozzi shares with us a comprehensive and Christ-centered perspective on our Lord God's good purpose to compassionately lead us all through those deep valleys of sorrow and sufferings that confront us in this fallen world. -Gary Deddo, Ph.D. (University of Aberdeen) Professor of Theology, Grace Communion Seminary
