Unexpected, unfathomable suffering can strike anyone, anytime, anywhere. In the wake of a horrific accident or an act of violence or in the throes of a natural disaster or a life-threatening illness, amid tears and crushing heartache, well-meaning words can fall short and God can seem far away. Lord of the Tragic offers a candid Christian look at tragedy that not only squarely faces it but also explores the hope, love, and strength of the incarnate God who suffers with us. Biblically sound, with real-life illustrations and thoughtful questions for reflection following each chapter, this book is for those who suffer, their comforters, and all who behold the horrible specter of tragedy and ask why.
