Pain is inevitable. But did you know there is a divine purpose for suffering? The Furnace of Affliction will help those struggling with the "why" of pain find hope. This book will encourage readers to look to God, who is bigger and more significant than any affliction. Horace Williams, Jr., a stroke survivor, well-acquainted with pain, throughout The Furnace of Affliction, blends real stories, practical advice from religious leaders, and biblical truth. Together these elements create a salve that should change how you view pain, re-evaluate your response to it, and inspire you to choose joy as you seek God's purpose.
“The Furnace of Affliction gives us an in-depth view of how God uses and even orchestrates times of pain and sorrow to refine us into the image of Christ. Horace Williams Jr. shares honest insight into his own life and relies heavily on scripture, making the book a powerful must-read for anyone who has ever felt abandoned by God or struggled to reconcile His love with a world full of suffering.”
