Celebrating the Wrath of God : Reflections on the Agony and the Ecstasy of His Relentless Love

Summary: Wonderful book
Review: I will keep this short, because I second Mr. McAnulty review, which was well said. I would add that I've read a lot and this is easily in my top 3 all time favorites (not counting the Holy Bible). I will soon be buying copies for my sisters and several friends. May God bless you.

Summary: A timely, compelling book about suffering
Review: While CS Lewis challenges our thinking in his treatise on the Problem of Pain, author Jim McGuiggan moves our hearts in this book filled with insight and real life stories. Keeping the humble position that we cannot truly understand suffering, the author compellingly makes the case that God is present in the wilderness, and that unique facets of his love for humanity are found there. Jim's writing shows scholarship and deep insight, while at the same time exuding deep compassion and a child-like wonder for God and his design. He relies on personal experience, the Bible and an extensive and varied number of other sources. As a christian psychologist, I find it a "must-read" for anyone who's felt the sting of life or counsels those who face insurmountable challenges.
