Meeting the Man of Sorrows Where We Need Him Most
We all long for a life worth living. So when we receive news of a frightening diagnosis, suffer heartbreaking loss in our family life, or get trapped in a cycle of our own sin, we might wonder about God. Where is he when we need him most? With wisdom from Isaiah 57:15, Good News at Rock Bottom helps readers discover that Jesus is hard to find in the comfortable lives we prefer. Instead, he meets us at rock bottom—where he is waiting for us with open arms.
With grace and empathy, author Ray Ortlund opens a door for readers to go deeper with God and get closer to faithful friends amid life’s inevitable uncertainties. After a while, readers may realize that being at rock bottom with Jesus is more fulfilling than a comfortable life on their own.
- Empathetic: Author Ray Ortlund meets readers with honesty and helps them fall into the arms of Christ amid the painful seasons of life
- Appeals to Sufferers: Will resonate with anyone who has experienced betrayal, failure, loneliness, or wondered if God even cares
- Ideal for Individual or Small-Group Use: Questions at the end of each chapter spur discussion with friends and reflection in one’s own heart
