Customer Reviews

Very good book about pain - Rated 5/5
I like this book very much, it directs you to the right way to deal with pain


living with pain - Rated 5/5
i read this book as a chronic pain sufferer. I found it very readable at a time when I didn't feel like reading anything.

He starts by explaining how pain as a response in the human body is actually useful. He then turns to look at what happens when the pain system doesn't function properly with a few very moving case studies. Finally he adds some very useful and practical tips for dealing with pain (either for yourself or to help others).

Along the way we learn that it wasn't part of God's original plan for his people to be in pain. There won't be any bad pain in heaven (yeah!)

This book is both practical and spiritual. Excellent for those in pain / suffering illness or those who know people who are.


A need responded to. - Rated 4/5
I bought this book when my Uncle and Aunt were both diagnosed with cancer within weeks of each other. In the midst of a very confusing time it described a God that was compassionate and wise and taught me to rest in the security of knowing Him as that. It taught me not to expect safety of the body but safety of the soul. This book is easy to read but some of it's truths can be painful if you are suffering and angry - although that dosen't make them any less true!


God is here and yes, it hurts! - Rated 5/5
Philip Yancey tackles this topic fearlessly. As a paraplegic still coming to terms with my own paralysis I found this book very helpful. He doesn't trot out the usual platitudes and he has the courage to say that we have all said the wrong thing in the belief that we were encouraging someone.

This is a book to keep and to ponder. The research is deep. For instance he spent a year talking to a self-help group of dying people. He also gives real life examples of many people who hurt.

The book begins with a treatise on why pain is necessary and can even be regarded as good. He then goes on to talk about pain in general - both physical and emotional.

This is a book for all who are hurting and those who have to live with them. It helped my wife and I greatly.
