Where Suffering Meets Sovereignty: My Crash Course in Trusting God: The inspirational true story of surviving tragic accidents, near-drownings, and ph

By Tim Olson

What would you say if you were the victim of 4 severe car crashes? 2 near-drownings? Being wheelchair bound with paralysis and deafness? Facing other major life problems?

"No matter what life or this world throws at you, being utterly grounded in God's sovereignty has been the key for me."

We all face life problems - hopefully not as severe as this - and we all need encouragement and comfort to face our troubles. Reading the stories in Where Suffering Meets Sovereignty will give you hope, and bring confidence that God has not forsaken you but has a sovereign interest in your life.

This easy-to-read book tells the journey of a Christian pastor who nearly died over 9 times, and yet found trust in a sovereign God to be his strength and foundation.

Now retired, Rev. Tim Olson writes short, interesting chapters about he learned to "keep believing" as a kid in the Jesus Movement, a young athlete, a college student, and a newly married seminary student wanting to go to Japan as a missionary. He relates how he learned to trust God in church ministry in Hawaii and then Tokyo, as he started a new church after becoming a paraplegic, and now in a retirement home seeking to finish his course well.Perfect to boost your own faith in the midst of problemsA great gift for others who are sufferingNot a theological treatise but a loving, careful testimonial of someone knows what it's like to experience difficult sufferingSuitable for non-religious readers as well as faith-based audiences
