    About this ebook

    "This is a book I'll be recommending for years to come." -- Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times bestselling author

    Do you believe God is just not fair?

    If you're like Jennifer Rothschild, you wrestle with questions when you experience painful circumstances.

    Does God care? Does he hear my prayers? Is he even there?

    Blinded as a teenager, Jennifer overcame daunting obstacles, found strength in God, and launched a successful speaking and writing ministry. Then in her 40s, everything changed.

    Jennifer hit a wall of depression and discontent that shook her to her core, undermining many of her past assumptions about her faith. She wondered who God was and why he continued to allow her to struggle and doubt. Where, she pleaded, is his hand of healing and hope in my life now?

    This is a book about finding more than just answers. It's for anyone who needs hope when life doesn't make sense--for all who reach for a God who feels distant. As Jennifer tackles the six big questions of faith, she will help you:

    • Trust God more than your feelings.
    • Strengthen your faith when you feel beat up by life.
    • Embrace your obstacles and start experiencing their purpose.
    • Face your disappointment and grow stronger from your loss.
